He brings her aboard while writing for a soap opera and she goes on to become a successful novelist. She is no longer just David’s Wife. As her professional recognition surpasses his, he finds himself becoming Joanna’s Husband. But Joanna’s own fame isn’t enough for her. She has other yearnings. Will this marriage last?
