Trashy Novel

These turn of events would be the perfect plot for a trashy novel:

People have secret lives such as “Carrie’s” for a number of reasons: fast money without the need for the usual job skills, escape from an otherwise boring life, the thrill of a secret identity, and/or the need to control and to feel powerful in a life that otherwise may have seemed out of control.

Her parents and her older brother, the latter a plastic surgeon, have now learned that their daughter/sister has literally worked night and day to keep up the almost $1 million home that she retained at the time of her divorce from her second husband, a man who allegedly went broke while trying to maintain his rich lifestyle for his wife and their children. It is her work at night, though, that has caused her family and friends to wonder how she was able to keep her two lives and her two identities separate, with her work as a female “escort” and masseuse who gave topless massages hidden from all who knew her from her “daytime” job and persona as a dance instructor.
