What readers say about The Trophy wife
5.0 out of 5 stars Second-chance novel is too bland a term for The Trophy Wife
I love women-of-strength novels and that is one on of the things Kate Loveday does so well. When young and lonely Erin McDonald leaves her home for a new job shortly after her mother's death, she is vulnerable to the practiced machinations of the urbane Giles Brightman and falls completely under his spell. Young, inexperienced, and loving does not equal weak, her love holds up under his growing busy-man routine but when he crosses a line, she walks. The tale of the rebuilding of her life, her soul, is the fascinating journey we travel the with The Trophy Wife....Goodreads...Reviewed by Jeanie Jackson
' The Trophy Wife' begins and focuses on exactly what the title refers to, however it goes on to become an expanded story line and much, much more. The cast of characters, beginning with Erin McDonald, broadens in a way that adds to the story line, but also creates many plots and sub-plots. Kate Loveday started “The Trophy Wife" with a very unique beginning chapter that would pique the interest of most, to continue to read. It is a very easy read. I was so enthralled that I finished it over the weekend! For the most part, it's a love story but there is money, power, crime, intimidation, friendships, business ventures and more. Excellent...

5.0 out of 5 stars A powerful story
The Trophy Wife, a novel by Kate Loveday, is the engrossing story of a marriage that goes bad and all that follows. This well crafted story follows Erin as she struggles to forge a new life. There is a varied cast of characters, some admirable and others frightening. The secondary characters play important roles in the narrative and their stories are blended together perfectly. Many important issues, including spousal abuse, are prominent in the story. I found this to be a powerful and memorable book. Highly recommended.... Amazon...Reviewed by Evie
