The Laundry Room Pact
(2026)(The first book in the Mom Club Confidential series)
A novel by Nikki Leigh
Claire’s life runs on snack schedules, school drop-offs, and a marriage that’s slipped into autopilot.
She doesn’t want a new life.
She wants the one she has to want her back.
It starts with a look.
Then a locked laundry room door.
Then a rule neither of them expected to need:
If the door’s locked… it’s on.
No overthinking.
No excuses.
No waiting until they'''re less tired.
What begins as a reckless spark becomes a secret pact to reclaim what they almost lost — the hunger, the tension, the way he used to touch her like she was something dangerous.
But rediscovering desire inside a real marriage isn’t neat.
It isn’t scheduled.
And it definitely isn’t quiet.
With three kids asleep down the hall and a group chat full of unfiltered mom friends cheering her on, Claire has to decide how much of herself she’s willing to take back — and how far she’s willing to let her husband follow.
Because once the door locks…
There’s no pretending they don’t want this.
