You probably haven't met a woman like Judy before -- described by some as a female Ripley. A working-class woman living in Palm Beach with her millionaire husband, she's outwardly normal but copes -- in her own unusual way -- with a hurricane, an overcrowded house, a workplace accident, and an unfaithful husband. Readers will be intrigued as they try to figure out Judy's decision-making process.
~My thoughts~
I really felt sorry for Judy because of all of the things that happen to her in the book. She's not sure whether or not she loves her husband, friends of hers get hurt in a freak accident going home from her house after a party, she and her best friend have lost touch because of time and distance, and then she finds out that her husband has slept with that now ex-friend!!!
One bad thing after another happens to this poor woman. The accident at her workplace results in her being suspended (losing her job), so when she finds out her husband has cheated on her with her best friend, she packs up her cat and takes a road trip to her parents cabin in Maine. She leaves the husband with an ultimatum, tells him to leave her alone for awhile, and the jerk ends up on her doorstep unannounced and very unwelcome.
I was a little surprised at the ending, but all in all, I enjoyed the book very much.
