The Mistress's Revenge

Product Information

Their talking is annoying and self satisfying only, that is the kind of individual that I would not choose to be friends with for any length of time. What does the progress of Sian’s relationship with Daniel, Sally’s husband, reveal about her character? She had arrived at the restaurant for dinner and she had barely one arm out of her sleeve when Clive informed her that he was giving his wife another chance. I gave it two stars instead of one because, even though I really didn't like the book, I did finally get pulled in enough to finish.

You feel suddenly as if you’ve moved into a parallel universe away from your normal, healthy life, where everything is the same and yet not the same. A quote I thought was very telling was "Just when I think your done taking everything from me, you take more".

She dreamed, schemed, and seduced her way to media adoration and a fairy-tale wedding to the lover she stole from his wife. I have never had that kind of obsessive love and it was painful for me to feel it through the main character.

And it's the end of the novel that bring that 'jaw-dropping' moment - just when you think you've worked it all out, it all turns upside down - shocking and unexpected and a fabulous finale. She rambles too much and fills her journal with snide little asides that became distracting after a while. Take a deep breath and run a couple of times around the quad and we’ll soon have you feeling tip top,” is the kind of thing a voice like that might say.But the honeymoon phase turns into something more shattering when the groom begins to reminisce about his ex, Kiara, and devises a plan to win her back. Page after page is filled with the epistolary rantings of a jilted lover spiraling into a deep depression.

The book is so honest, tackling very real issues surrounding marriage, infidelity, consequences, revenge, mental health and human nature. How does Sally’s seeming disinterest in her own chil­dren’s lives relate to her obsessive attention to the lives of Clive’s offspring? I know that after dinner, the two of you tend to slope off together to the second floor of your lovely St. Desperate for a job, homeless and penniless housekeeper Cleo Taylor takes up the business offer from billionaire tycoon Andreas Xenides – his fake mistress for a month for one million dollars!I think it’s supposed to let me know I have her complete undivided attention—she told me that getting it all “out there” would be a vital part of my recovery process. I couldn’t help but wonder if this was going to be just another formulaic female stalker novel, à la Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction. How does the novel’s conclusion relate to the injus­tices Sally and Clive perpetuated one against the other over the course of the novel? We encourage everyone, including young adults, to seek guidance on sexuality and sexual wellbeing from health professionals or public health authorities.

If you post her pictures and videos online you will be committing a criminal act which carries a prison sentence of 6 months to 2 years. A bracing dose of black humor comes from imagining Clive's growing horror at learning that his ex-lover has befriended his wife and grown children.If someone knowingly decides to fornicate someone's husband or wife, then that someone is infringing into a legal agreement by means of an illegally unauthorized relationship. Told in first person, Sally speaks clearly to Clive in her entries, there are no dates, she just launches in as if she is having a conversation, all one sided of course. We were all out somewhere and Susan had been talking about pensions and how she’d be entitled to a big chunk of yours, no matter what. I suppose I could tell these things to Helen Bunion and she would tilt her birdie head at me and listen intently and nod a bit and go “mmmm” in an encouraging and eminently empathetic way, but it wouldn’t be quite the same. At that point, I thought the book was going the more literary merit route rather mass pleasing route, which I appreciated.
