BACK OF BOOK:
Cassandra Sales is a woman with a gift for nurturing things---her husband, the successful wine importer; her two adult children; the fabulous flowers in her garden. After 26 years of marriage, however, Cassie's husband, Mitch, is spending more time skipping abroad than remaining at home with her. Tired of being a modest Long Island housewife who can't even remember what it's like to be kissed, Cassie has a face-life to recapture her youthful allure. The surprise for her husband goes ary when Mitch returns home early from a business trip. When he sees the post-op horror show, he collapses on the spot. The resulting coma may spare Mitch from the tax audit he's facing, but Cassie is forced to step in and research the facts of her own life. What she discovers about Mitch and the family business shocks her to the core: her "loving" husband was preparing to divorce her, swindle her out of tons of month, and run off with another woman. As Cassie recuperates, she realizes that what she is after is revenge. Big-time. But she soon learns that the road to retribution can lead to unforeseen and often deadly complications.
