About this listen

When Jack Power, the titan of real estate in New York City, decides to divorce his wife, Cynthia, former ballerina and Princess of Park Avenue, in order to marry his mistress, Lara, America's favorite morning news anchor, all hell breaks loose. He's got to come up with a plan, and fast - including finding a suitable boyfriend for his wife so that she will let him go.

Naturally, what Jack wants, Jack gets - but what if what he wants isn't what he needs? And what if it ends up he never really knew his wife at all, until it was too late?

The story seemed more 'alive' with a male and female narrator. Not too shabby...

Nice to have more than one narrator

I felt no support, triumph or sympathy for a billionaire’s wife and her precarious standing on the board of the ballet. I felt bad for the random bartender who was used as a plaything and discarded.

The endings that were unsatisfactory

The elements of the story have all been gathered from other books and movies we’ve seen and read - not to mention people in the news : New York City elites, artists and billionaires. If you know NYC , you’ll recognize some astute descriptions and there are a few instances of genuine insight or humor - but not enough to save it. Readers are performers - and do a pretty good job in general - but are forced to over-act at times based on the script they’ve been given.

Derivative with a cliché in each sentence

Save your money and look elsewhere for entertainment. This "novel" was a series of cliches. Go for "First Wives Club" or "Snobs" or "People Like Us" or "Scruples". This was beyond awful. Tired plot, two-dimensional characters, and so many luxury brands mentioned, you'd think the author was paid for each product placement. Spare yourself the boredom.

Hopelessly vapid

This book is simply awful. The plot is so predictible you can tell what was going to happen 200 pages in advance. The characters are all stock stereotypes. Rich wife who is taken for granted--check. Rich husband who is a jerk who had a bad childhood and a mean belittling father--check and check. Cool black secretary with Jamaican accent who is the only one who has her act together--check. Blond other woman who looks like a sex goddess bimbo but really has brains and talent--check. The author seems to think that making one character a Lesbian is being original. When the author is stuck moving the story along, she sends someone shopping. The dialogue is silly and trite and the love scenes are something out of a bad romance novel. I don't mind trash--it doesn't even have to be good trash to get me hooked. But when I am rolling my eyes, can finish the boring dialogue before the character says it, and am counting the pages to see when the pain will end 200 pages into the novel, it isn't trash, it is pure Garbage.

She Can Have Him!

Awful writing. Bad acting. Save your self time and skip this one. Unless I guess you love daytime soap operas.

Just awful
