She is totally freaked out by the change in her life and can't decide how to handle it.Abbey is a great main character who is desperate to get a break in her life. A man who appears to be totally different than her husband who pampers her and cares about her feelings.

When her husband finds out, he coldly demands that she return it immediately. One day, to cheer herself up, she goes to Nordstrom and buys herself a designer handbag.
