The Ex-Mrs. Hedgefund (2009)

Holly Talbott has it all - a great husband Tim and she feels blessed that she is able to stay at home with her son Miles and not feel pressured to work. She loves that her sister-in-law Kiki is her best friend and is able to confide in her. One day Kiki tells her that she is leaving her husband, Hal. So Holly is forbidden by Tim and her mother-in-law from speaking to Kiki ever again since she has betrayed the family. But Holly starts seeing Kiki secretly. One day when she is out with Kiki, Holly sees Tim in the arms of another woman. She is faced with a hard decision of living with his infidelities or divorcing him. At times the book is slow to get to the point and the diagrams are frustrating. But if you can get past that, the book does get better during the second half.(CG)

Feeling adrift in her new jungle while Josh works long hours, she meets up with her former art tutor and college crush, Tate.
