Hedge Fund Wives by Tatiana Boncompagni


Marcy Emerson becomes a hedge fund wife when she and her husband, John, move from Chicago to New York. As a former investment banker who grew up middle-class, she doesn't really fit in with the glamorous other wives who continue to spend loads of money, despite the downturn in the economy. Since having a miscarriage in Chicago, she still longs for a baby, yet John immerses himself more and more in his work. Luckily, Marcy finds a good friend in Gigi who lets her keep busy, helping with her catering business. After a life-changing event, Marcy learns to reinvent herself and come out an even stronger person. A frothy look at both the up- and downsides of great wealth.
