"The sizzling new story of sex, marriage and infidelity"

"I'm leaving you, Roger. It's over. I'm divorcing you." Oh the sheer pleasure of pronouncing those words!
"But why? He shrieked. "Why?"
"There are many reasons, Roger. And my attorney will be happy to detail them for you. But the most important reason is a young girl named Mary."

The life and loves of V - suburban mum, wife and psychotherapist - began as a popular website, now they're available as a sizzling series of books.

V's back and more outspoken than ever. Acting on a tip, V ransacks her house for evidence of her husband, Roger's infidelities and his alleged fortune. What she finds in a hidden file is even more shocking than secret investments, and changes her life and marriage forever. But V must also choose between her secret lovers - the burly Eddie, or cute but geeky Ben.

The Diary of V began as a serialised story in Redbook at the website women.com and has enjoyed an amazing following ever since. Now published for the first time as a novel, The Diary of V: The Break-Up is part two of a trilogy, to be followed by Happily Ever After? The Affair was first released in October 2001.

The Diary of V - suburban mum, wife and psychotherapist - is thoroughly addictive and not to be missed!
