The Escort Wife - Paperback

by Ivanhoe Jones (Author)

Leah and David Armitage are a happily married couple with three children they adore. When their family business is devastated during the Global Financial Crisis, David and Leah take what seems an easy way of making big money fast. The Escort Wife is the story of what happens when ordinary people make rash decisions during the height of stress. Leah in particular is thrown into a world in which she is hopelessly ill-equipped. Open to abuse and sexual manipulation, Leah is surrounded by hedonism and decadence to the point where her soul becomes lost. Making a decision, Leah doggedly faces the demons of her addiction, and turns a story of sexual promiscuity, into a woman's quest to reclaim her family and bring depth and purpose to her life. Easy to read and with characters who become instantly familiar, The Escort Wife is a story about sexual excitement, addiction, love, and family. The Escort Wife uses real topics including explicit sexuality, sexual attraction, devotion, health and happiness, and the search for meaning.
