It is almost a Stepford Wives community, outwardly perfect, but looking more closely, there are deep troubles. Marriages have grown stale, there is an affair, there are secrets causing a chasm in families. I didn’t feel invested with any of the women, and I just wanted the book to end as everyone was so unhappy. #FourWives #WendyWalker Please see my review at http://www.curledup.com/fourwive.htm. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Meet: Gayle Beck, the matriarch of Hunting Ridge society, who struggles to reconcile her picture-perfect life with a numbing sense of unfulfilment; Love Welsh, adoring mother, who battles with memories of a childhood lived in the shadow of a genius father; Marie Passeti, over-stretched divorce lawyer and mother, who has lost her passion for life and for her husband; and Janie Kirk, yummy mummy, whose quest for acceptance knows no bounds. In a world where happiness comes second to appearances, their domestic discontent spirals into an irreversible course of risk-taking, secrecy and self-destruction. For these four wives perfection is just a façade and behind closed doors infidelity, self-doubt and deceit run rife. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Love, a child prodigy, hides a secret from her past that leads to a mysterious illness, crippling her body and soul.
Marie, a brash lawyer, struggles to remain professional with a young intern who adores her while her husband plays golf in his free time.
Gayle, a descendant of an old wealth family, copes with her tyrant husband by taking prescription drugs and confiding in Paul, the cook.
Janie, a made-to-perfection mother of four, does not know how to cope with the emotional emptiness of her marriage and therefore plunges into a sex-only affair with a married man.
The four women's lives intersect with the planning of a charity function, and the facades they all carefully preserve for the Hunting Ridge world to see slowly crumble into genuine friendships.
A must read for anyone missing their gal pals! ( )
