Publisher Description
"A cheeky tale for recession-era romantics," (More) from a bestselling author
The year is 2006 and Holly Talbott is married to the founder of Comer Capital at the apex of excess on Wall street. Sure, Holly loves being a stay-at-home mom and keeping house accounts at all the best places, but there are some downsides to being Mrs. Hedgefund. Even botox can't beautify her motherin-law's withering stares, and her husband, Tim, is away so often it feels like she's single again. So when it turns out that not all of Tim's trips have been for business, the newly minted divorcée ventures beyond the Upper East Side and finds that sometimes exes have all the fun.
Impeccably rendered with wit and style, The Ex-Mrs. Hedgefund is an old-fashioned love story and a celebration of New York-in any economy.
Customer Reviews
So Much Fun!
Jills intuitive and astute rendering of her characters makes this book come bouncing off the pages. Clearly,(in the know) Jill brings us to the tables, parties and houses of real people we might love, envy, chide or avoid but she is never mean spirited or unkind. As for her descriptions of what friendship means, we should all be so lucky! Bravo Mrs. Kargman.
