  The Jungle that is the NYC Elite Crowd!

Even though I tried in earnest to distinguish between the two authors, I couldn't. "The Right Address" is just so well written and blends together seamlessly.

The main story is about Melanie Korn, second wife of Arthur Korn, billionaire in the death business. Poor Melanie is thrust into the life of the extremely wealthy in NYC and struggles to keep up. Because of the constant accolades of the first Mrs. Korn, Melanie becomes a little obsessed with becoming just like her. But then a social catastrophe hits her hard and she rethinks this struggle.

There are a few substories as well: Morgan Vance, husband to the kleptomaniac/dazed Cordelia and father to two grown boys...and one new baby girl with his mistress. He struggles to unload the mistress and some unexpected twists happen.

The two gossip hounds, Joan and Wendy, appear throughout. They are incredibly judgmental and catty and are two characters you will LOVE to hate!

Jerome de Stingol is a louse. But don't worry, he gets his.

Olivia Weston is a curious heiress and you find out that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover!

There are several twists and turns in this outstanding read and the end will leave you satisfied.
