Best Enemies

By Jane Heller

Amy and Tara were best friends from the time they were is grade school together. So when Amy is planning her wedding, naturally she asked Tara to be her maid of honor. Bad idea, because Tara lands in the sack with Amy's hubby-to-be and Amy catches them in the act. The friendship is over and Tara runs off with the guy and they get married. Amy goes into therapy to cope with her depression.
A few years later, Tara has written a book and the publisher Amy works for assigns the book to her to do the publicity for it. Which means Amy will be forced to work with the hated Tara and her vile husband.
Complications ensue when Amy pretends to be engaged to a very successful author and Tara's vile hubby runs off with his secretary. Because Tara's book is all about her beautiful and perfect life including her perfect marriage, it is imperative that the hubby be located in time for all the publicity events and presented to the public as the loving husband he is portrayed to be in Tara's book. This crisis brings the two women together and once again their friendship blooms.

This was a pretty good story. It is told first from Amy's point of view and then from Tara's. The only real problem I had with it was Amy's willingness to be friends with a person who has proven herself to be completely selfish and untrustworthy. But other than that, I enjoyed the story.
