Walk on the Wild Side: The Reinvention of Violet Monte

By Suzie Jay

~My Review~

4.0 stars

Violet finds herself on the wrong side of 40 and unexpectedly going through divorce after dedicating 20 years of her life to her husband, family, and home. She's lost on how to start over and how to figure out what she wants to do with her life. Walk on the wild side is a great short read about how one woman is able to pick up the pieces and start over after catching her husband with another woman. She does it in a way that is tasteful and classy, leaving there be no doubt she was not the losing party when the marriage dissolved. 

What a great story of life after divorce and how much more is waiting for you if you have the courage to seek it. This story also shows a glimpse of what an amazing thing it can be for a woman going through rough times to have great support, whether it be family, old friends, new friends, or just those that simply understand you need a reason to smile when your life is turned upside down.

About the book:

 Violet Monte believed her love and marriage would last a lifetime–until she catches her husband in bed with a younger woman. When she realizes she was nothing more than a trophy wife, Violet decides to chase her own dreams. The only problem is, she has no idea what they are. Violet begins to pursue her own interests which sometime include spying on her mysterious neighbor, who might actually be a lady of the night. Just as Violet is finding stability–– and the possibility of opening her heart again–– her husband returns not with an apology, but with a signed pre-nuptial agreement, claiming he’ll keep everything and leave her with nothing. Violet is far from the compliant woman he once knew but she doubts she has the strength to fight and win, until her intriguing neighbor unlocks what Violet has been looking for all along. Can Violet fight back from a lost love and reinvent herself into the person she always wanted to be or will she forever be just an ex-trophy wife?
