Peppered with quotations from second wives from coast to coast, this conversational and often funny book looks at the plight of the second wife in today's world.
From stereotypes of trophies, bimbos and homewreckers to often grueling day-to-day struggles of modern stepmothers, SECOND WIVES is an honest and thorough book about an important issue that affects millions of women. Lively writing and personal reflections touch on important circumstances, such as the blended family, the biased court system, the plight of the divorced father, the financial ramifications of child support orders and the deep feelings that millions of women share but never discuss.
Politically incorrect and fearlessly honest, the book examines phenomena affecting today's second wives, including the ex-wife from hell, the deadbeat mom, and even the challenges facing second wives in their golden years.
Above all, it is a call to arms. With more than 50 Internet resources and plenty of! information about advocacy groups across the country, SECOND WIVES implores readers to reach out and help change the sorry state of domestic relations.
