Trophies" - by Heather Thomas

This is the story of Marion Zane, the top Trophy wife, and her fabulous fall from grace orchestrated by Lyndy Montgomery Wallert, AKA The Beast of Revenge. Lyndy has had this dream that soon she would reclaim, what she thought of as; her rightful spot as top Trophy, which she had lost to Marion. And when that dream finally comes true, she's decides she going to treat herself to *snort* "ass-implants, resplendent and high." Lyndy was going to use her ass dream as incentive to fight her way back to the TOP.

Marion is not your typical "Trophy"; she is,wise,smart,loyal, loving, caring and politically savvy. She has it all: lovely body, looks,money, a solid marriage and best of all, no pre-nup. She has it all. Until one
fateful night while hosting a political fund raiser at her home, a child dies needlessly while waiting for medical care at the hospital, and in her enthusiasm to right a terrible injustice, she does the unthinkable, she stages a fund raising "Throw-Down" and succeeds beyond her wildest dreams.
The means to Marion's destruction has now been set in motion.
Also meet - Maya, Pepper, Patti and Ivan. All of them have secrets better left hidden. Will they aid Marion in time of need or will betray her too?

Reading this book is like watching a horrible collision about to happen, you know there isn't anything youcan do to stop it, but you can't look away either.
The brain of Heather Thomas must filled with pure creative evil to be able to think up something this cruel, yet wonerfully entertaining and engaging. Only one other author in my recent memory has done the same and done it this well and the difference is the main characters in these books take their revenge out on the men in their lives (read Olivia Goldsmith's books - "Pen Pals" and "First Wives Club" )

A pure, unapologetic "potato chip" based, beach read. One that you can't put down because you're afraid that you may miss the next "Mean Girls Grown Up" moment.

Watch for the last chapter and the last bit about Claire, very scary "All About Eve"moment .

I adored this gossipy, back stabbing look at the ultra-rich second wives and wondering how much of this is the truth. It goes to prove the adage that 'living well is the best revenge'.

If you enjoyed this you will most certainly love the two books mentioned previously, plus the classic movies "The Women" (the original not the remake) which features an entire cast made only of women , and "All About Eve".… (mehr)
