Melissa's Story - The A-Z of Trophy Wives, #13

They're young, beautiful, with fast cars and luxury homes-with absentee, older husbands. Bored and lonely, each of our trophy wives has her own solution. Melissa had a problem. She'd overspent again-and her husband wasn't going to be happy about it. Her allowance was generous, but her often-absent husband meant the house was empty and lonely for her. She compensated by spending and spending and spending.When she opened her credit card bill, she knew she was in serious trouble.
That afternoon at the gym, she was obviously troubled, and her friend Gina asked her what was up. Over coffee, she poured out her woes and the need to find 3k before the end of the month. Gina had an answer for her, but it meant breaking something Melissa considered sacred - her marriage vows. Could she really pull a trick, as Gina was suggesting? A doubleheader even?
