News bulletin: Gone is HBOโs Sex and the City. Sex has moved to the suburbs. Here is where youโll find ABCโs #1 TV show Desperate Housewives. Here too is THE SECRET LIVES OF FORTUNATE WIVES, a hilarious but poignant and spot-on novel about love and betrayal inside the world of the gated community.
Pampered Hunting Hills, Ohio, socialite Marti Denton never realized she was madly in love with John Harding until he impulsively married Claire Stark, a beautiful but socially awkward newspaper reporter to whom a "coming-out" party is a controversy, not a tradition. Itโs not until the Hunting Hills wives are plunged into a series of explosive scandals that the two women reach a new understanding of each other and what it means to be a fortunate wife in the twenty- first century.
