Ladies Night by Mary Kay Andrews




Grace is a very successful blogger.   In fact her blog has over 239,000 followers ( Deep sigh and lots of envy).  She is getting to be so successful that she has hired an assistant to help her out.  Turns out that her assistant is "assisting" her husband a lot more than her and in a lot of different ways.  She finds them both in his car and the assistant is helping him with his pants zipper.  I think you see where this is going.  
 
Grace gets so furious that she drives his very expensive sports car into their pool and goes to stay overnight with her Mom.  When she tries to get back into her gated community and her house she is prohibited from entering and the slim bag of  a husband has frozen her credit cards and her accounts.  Oh and here is the icing on the cake, turns out he has administrative privileges to her blog account and has changed her password.  He can do that he manages her business. Right?  Grace has no choice but to start all over again.  Can she do it.  Personally I think she should have taken the advice given by Ivana Trump in First Wives Club and I quote " Don't get mad, get everything."  But if Grace had done that there would be no story.

As part of the divorce proceedings she is forced to attend therapy to try to work out some of the hostile feelings she has for her cheating husband which happens to be all ladies and one man.  They end up forming a bond and so their therapy session becomes Ladies night.
This is either the third or fourth Mary Kay Andrew book that I read and I really find them good light reading. Check out my post on Deep Dish posted June 25, 2012 about two regional cooks competing for a chance to do a show for the cooking channel.
