Oh, it is so hard being the second wife, particularly when you're husband's 20 years older than you, and you used to work for his wife - his (grown) children don't warm to you. his friends aren't interested in including you in their cosy circle, and all the things that are new and exciting for you are being done for the second time for him.
This could have been an interesting take on a well travelled path, but Minty Lloyd was so thoroughly unsympathetic - she doesn't love him, she just wanted financial security; she not only took her rival and former friend's husnband but also her job; she finds her twin sons boring and their care an unremitting chore - that I couldn't get past the midway point. Which is unfortuante because I suspect that things might have livened up. I just wasn't prepared to take the chace that they wouldn't. - Alex
