Lauren Weisberger

Two college sweethearts are living a happy, rather ordinary life in New York but there's a slight twist -- she's the breadwinner, supporting her musician boyfriend. Until the tables are turned when he's discovered by a Sony exec and their worlds are turned upside down. Soon they are holidaying in the Hamptons, adorning the cover of Vanity Fair and attending every glitzy party in town -- all the while his career is reaching new, dizzying heights. But the trappings of this elite lifestyle mean our heroine must face the wrath of the US press. Scorned for having a less-than-perfectly-honed LA body and brutalised for being 'ordinary' things couldn't get any worse! Then news erupts that her best friend, who's been her confidante through these months of misery, has sold her innermost secrets to the press and her life spirals out of control. She finds solace in a secret support group: The Civilian Ex-Wives and Girlfriends of Celebrities Group -- a place to gossip, lubricated with lashings of shared experiences and strong cocktails. As this sassy group right the wrongs of their past relationships, our heroine must decide if she's going to sink or swim.

Per Leigh Eisner, newyorchese trentenne dalla vita apparentemente perfetta, il lunedi e sacro. Editor in carriera in una casa editrice, fidanzata a un uomo che tutti le invidiano, vive in un appartamentino a Manhattan davanti all''Empire State Building e adora dedicare la prima sera della settimana al totale relax. Nessuno oserebbe mai disturbarla, ne Russell, il fidanzato, ne le amiche di sempre, Adriana ed Emmy, abituate da tempo alle sue rigidita .Ecco perche, quando, proprio un lunedi, sente bussare alla porta, Leigh si fa prendere dal panico. Ma una figura accovacciata sul pianerottolo attira la sua attenzione: e Emmy, in lacrime, che racconta di essere stata scaricata dal fidanzato a favore della giovane e illibata personal trainer, che lei stessa gli aveva presentato.E'' la goccia che fa traboccare il vaso, cosi, poco dopo, le amiche sanciscono un diabolico patto: dopo aver sopportato per troppo tempo i piu atroci tradimenti nella speranza che il fedifrago si decidesse a compiere il grande passo, la timida Emmy dira addio alla morigeratezza e per un anno dovra cambiare piu uomini che scarpe. Adriana, invece, abituata da sempre a sedurre un numero imprecisato di uomini, dovra imparare ad avere una relazione stabile.Solo Leigh resta esclusa dalla gara, ma per poco. Perche quando il diavolo ci mette la coda, complice un anello inaspettato e un nuovo lavoro, anche le migliori intenzioni rischiano di andarsene all''inferno.
