The bitter divorce of a “perfect couple,” and its impact on the gated community in which they live, is seen through the eyes of a neighbor, Lyssa Harper, who doesn’t realize the parallels between their marriage and her own.
When Lyssa befriends the husband — Harry, a former Master of the Universe turned stay-at-home dad in order to hold onto his home and his children — the neighborhood’s mean mommies who are vying to make him the next notch on their bedposts turn on her, revealing the cruel side of suburbia.
“Hollywood’s got nothing on the cast of characters living in the bedroom community of Paradise Heights, who have the secrets, sex, money and scandal of an OK! Magazine cover story. Josie Brown is a skilled observer whose clever dialogue and feisty style make for truly entertaining reading.” —Jackie Collins (http://www NULL.jackiecollins NULL.com/), bestselling author of Hollywood Wives and Poor Little Bitch Girl
“I loved this juicy-as-it-it-is-heartfelt novel about love, marriage, friendship–and sharp, manicured claws. Could not put it down!” —Melissa Senate, author of The Secret of Joy (http://www NULL.melissasenate NULL.com/)
“Brown proves that a story with suburban bodies can be just as suspenseful as one with dead bodies! Secret Lives of Husbands and Wives is a probing, entertaining fishbowl of married life in a well-heeled, wayward neighborhood. Loved it!” —Stephanie Bond, author of Body Movers (http://www NULL.stephaniebond NULL.com/) series
“Poignant and funny! Josie Brown’s protagonist is strong, resilient, and unflinchingly honest: she has all the skills she needs to navigate the ‘mean streets’ of the gated community of Paradise Heights. A great read!” —Wendy Wax, author Magnolia Wednesdays (http://www NULL.authorwendywax NULL.com/)
“I loved it! Josie Brown captures the highs and lows of love, lust and marriage with heartwrenching pathos. I’m recommending it to all my friends as the perfect beach read!“ —Lisa Rinna (http://www NULL.lisarinna NULL.com/), actress, and author of the novel, Starlit, and the personal growth book, Rinnavation
