Review # 1 was written on 2010-11-23 00:00:00 Josefa Mendez I have no idea what possessed me to pick up this book, let alone FINISH it. Well, I didn't read it. I listened to it in the car during my commute and since I had nothing else to listen to, I finished it. I know this is a light read but it's just terrible. It's the story of a woman who has been a stay at home mom for 16+ years, who finds out her husband got fired 3 months earlier and didn't tell her. She and her best friend decide to open an escort service. Her friend just lost her job hosting the national evening news. That right there should have told me to move on; we're supposed to believe that an intelligent newswoman (who's famous) can't find another job opportunity because she's (gasp) 40, so she must become a madame. Truman (lead character) does not tell her husband what she's up to. At the end, after many hijinks and wacky situations (sarcasm), when he finds out he says 'if running an escort business is what you want to do, then I'll support you'. Huh?? P.S. they have two teenage daughters in their house. Great lessons they're teaching them. This book is an utter waste of time I'm sorry to say.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-12-03 00:00:00 Solo Flyin Peter loses his job but does not tell his wife Tru. She and her friends set up an escort service but she does not tell Peter. She's afraid the new neighbor is after Peter. Tru gets caught and the truth comes out. This is a book that shows why communication and honesty are good virtues to follow. This was a different story and I enjoyed it but the name dropping turned me off. I liked the ladies and how they set up the escort service.
