Selina had a great life. Saline has three children, a beautiful home and Simon her husband. Simon is out of town a lot. Almost all of his business dealings are done over seas. So he is gone for long periods at a time.

Lottie's life is not as great as Selina's. Lottie has a daughter and a loving husbandl Simon. Little do they know that they are both married to the same man. How do they find out? It's at his funeral. While Selina is grieving, Lottie is not only grieving, but can't understand why she was not involved in the funeral arrangements. All of this comes to a head when they meet up at Simon's funeral. Both women are shocked beyond words.

Not only do they find out that Simon married both of them, but he also divided up his estate between the two of them. Selina is mad as hell, that she has to sell her home but also has to give up their property in Italy. Lottie is devastated that she is broke, and may lose her home. Because the police feel that Simon killed himself, there will be no insurance pay out. Selina feels that Simon would never take his own life.

Can the two of them learn to deal with the fact that they both were conned by Simon or will there be a WAR OF THE TWO WIVES?

Tamar Cohen had me from the first page. I really enjoyed the way that she made me feel for both women. At first I felt sorry for Selina, than all of a sudden I was feeling sorry for Lottie. At one point in the book I really hated Selina. It seemed like she didn't care about Simon, only what his money would get her.

Tamar Cohen has a way of making the reader love and hate characters at the same time. She also brought into the book the feelings of what the four children of Simon were going though. Both women learn a lot through their children. From one not being in the right frame of mind to the other ones coming to grips knowing that they have another sibling

WAR OF THE WIVES is a great story. I really like the way it all came together.
