Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:


Haley Cutler is the consummate trophy wife. Perhaps was is the more accurate term. Haley married Prince Charming when she was only twenty—back in the day when highlights came from an afternoon at the beach, not three hours in the salon.



Unfortunately, after seven years as Jay Cutler's wife, a role that provided significance and what she thought was love, Jay walks out, and Haley finds herself with few life skills that translate to the real world, not to mention a sense of amnesia about who she used to be. But before Haley can find her way, she must meet with Jay's lawyer, the strikingly handsome Hamilton Lowe. Although she can't stand his self-righteous contempt for her divorce, she takes his suggestion to attend a group at his church called 'The Trophy Wives Club,' a Bible study composed of women who have been dealt a raw deal. Haley's never been into the whole Jesus thing but could really use some friends to walk her through this phase (how do you apply for a credit card anyway?).



As Haley begins to realize that she really can stand on her own two feet, she also learns that sometimes in losing we find the real reward . . .

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - A Tub of Chocolate Frosting
Will a tub of chocolate frosting ever take on the same meaning? I don't think so. Kristin Billerbeck did an awesome job of endearing the reader to Haley Cutler's character from the start. Kristin is incredibly gifted in writing dialogues and communicating Haley's self-talk.

There were plenty of good laughs as well as serious reflections throughout the book. This was a unique and rewarding book to read. I look forward to the sequel.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - I love this author!!
Loved this book...it was soo great!!! Travelling into the life of Haley Cutler can be somewhat confusing at times, but also fun and adventurous....this novel was GREAT!!! More than I expected from this novel...



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Real character- good guys
Though I don't believe in fairy tails I like meeting the women characters in this book. They are hilariously faulty and so genuine. It's a good read and I am happy to see another Christian Chick Lit author. I hope this genre grows.Drawing Marissa



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Love and Marriage in Hollywood
I love Kristin Billerbeck and would give my eyeteeth to be able to write like she does. This book, however, wasn't my favorite of all her books I've read. It is more serious than some and delves into areas not seen in most Christian fiction and for that I applaud her. I will say that once I started this book I couldn't put it down and was caught up in Haley's life and her travel to find TRUE love.

A small comment about Haley's mother going to a church where they "talk to rocks - well, cement statues of saints, but still" bothered me as a Catholic as did the incorrect use of the phrase Immaculate Conception. As with most Protestants, the phrase is used to mean Virgin Birth, which is completely wrong. It is the doctrine that Mary was saved from stain of Original Sin at the moment of her conception. It doesn't refer to Jesus's conception at all.

All in all, though, I enjoyed the book, but look forward to more humour in her other books.



Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - New Editor?
I am a huge Kristin Billerbeck fan! She is my favorite author and I love how she can create characters who are realistic Christians. This book, however, was disappointing to me. I was actually surprised to see so many good reviews on Amazon after I finished it yesterday! The characters in The Trophy Wives Club just didn't seem to be as well-developed as I'm used to with Billerbeck's writing and I found it hard to sympathize with the main character, Haley. In addition, I found numerous typos, including 2 times where the wrong name is used altogether! That bugs me. I still love Kristin and I will continue to read her work, but this book was not up to par, in my opinion.
