Contemporary Chick Lit
With Lally back from her honeymoon with husband number four; Jessica content with her burgeoning relationship with Mr. Right Now; and Janey newly confident and newly remodeled by her plastic surgeon, it is not Caitlinβs turn for romance. Unkindly nicknamed βThe Snatchβ by the other exes, Caitlin struggles to fit in. Her divorce didnβt leave her comfortably well-off and in fact her ex-husbandβs unseemly mental breakdown and subsequent hospitalization left her nearly destitute. But Caitlin is determined to live the life she deserves, and to give her son all the same advantages as the other children in his exclusive school. But things are looking up with the new-found support of the exes, who rally around Caitlin to help her find a new man. The only catch in the exesβ plan is Caitlinβs son. Heβs developed a sudden interest in his absent father and seems to have an unnatural attachment to his computer. Caitlin discovers a disturbing email in his account, and then begins to receive threatening messages herself. Who is sending these messages? Can the mystery mailer crumble the careful castle of lies Caitlinβs built to protect herself and the fortune she knows should be hers? Will he strike the other exesβ inboxes? Caitlin must turn to the other ex- wives for help in this hilariously funny, sarcastically witty, and deliciously catty novel about the never-ending pursuit of happiness. Translation: an even bigger bank account.
