INBOX FULLHer life was supposed to be perfect, having swapped the English countryside for a manor house in the Mediterranean sun. Complete with husband, kids and animals she lived the paradise dream - until a chance meeting with a beautiful married Swiss banker was to suddenly turn her heart inside out and challenge everything she held dear. She crossed the line of her gilded cage to rendezvous across the world to be with him, leading to explosive consequences that were impossible to predict. She could never go home.Being a single mother, reinventing herself in the most expensive city in the world was not the plan but she didn’t ‘do’ compromise.From private jets, super yachts and playboys to school fees and parking tickets. Penniless suicidal nights in ER to being hounded by the world press - This is an extraordinary true story of choices and where they can lead you. Fear and loneliness, painful lessons and lots of hilarious escapades, a rollercoaster ride from spiritual adventures in Peru to all night parties in Ibiza. Her incredible journey of climbing mountains to follow her dream led to arriving in New York for a date with what she believed was destiny.... He was very late.So many wrong turns, but surely a life full of mistakes is better than a life not lived. Inbox full was never written for anyone to ever read other than myself, but as it evolved and grew over the years I realized it could be an entertaininhg story to share. So here is my ‘original, unedited, ‘part one’ of inbox full. Enjoy the ride. Be warned; it just doesn’t stop, but what happens next defines ‘truth is wilder than fiction’.

I can’t believe this is the book that got me back into reading. Unfortunately not Good, but I will consume anything Real Housewives related

Full disclosure: Yes, I watch almost all of the Real Housewives shows on Bravo. I am a people-watcher and that type of reality TV is the best people. watching. EVER. I loved the DC Housewives and Cat was a favorite of mine.

I feel for Cat,as it does sound as though her first husband treated her horribly. Emotional and verbal abuse can be even worse than physical abuse. I know that she went through another divorce after the DC Housewives was finished with their on and only season. She is in a relationship now and pregnant, and I wish her well. I do wonder if he is the younger man she spoke about in this book.

However, this book is just bad. Really bad. The writing is sub-par. The editing was even worse. The Kindle version had a ton of typos and grammar issues.

It's my understanding that there is a sequel to this book coming out and I hope it's edited much better than this book was.

Can only recommend if you're a fan.

I'm halfway finished and I just can't take it anymore. I love a gossipy read just as much as the next person and I got to the fling with Prince Harry. But this woman is just a disaster. First the writing is hella bad. She thinks it's okay because we are getting to read the "unedited personal journal" of a dreadfully boring person. Next, her whining is constant. She plays at being independent. It's all pretend. And I can't bring myself to feel sorry for her or feel enlightened by her and, most disappointing of all, I can't feel entertained by her.

I really wasn't a fan of this book. I read it as a woman who cheated on her husband and then we were supposed to feel sorry for her. Then she goes on to live all those amazing experiences. I only forced myself to finish it because I wanted to see how things ended for her. Imagine my surprise when the end of the book was a too be continued scenario. I was pretty upset I didn't know this ahead of time.

I enjoyed this book after watching her on TV & most people not really getting her. Yes there are some cringe moments, but was easy to read but have a much better insight into who this lady is.
