The founder of the new wives' club, The FUPAs, finds out the hard way what's done in the dark will always come to light. Mrs. Felice Fee-Fee Fontenot is a potty-mouthed, self-proclaimed Christian fighting a daily mental battle--a creaky pendulum swinging between God-given virtuosity and society-pegged bitchiness. Freshly diagnosed as bipolar and pushed to the edge of sanity by her unsupportive marriage, Fee-Fee concocts the brilliant idea of starting a wives' support group, consisting of five friends that are facing the same mound of problems and hoping to salvage the crumbs of their failed romantic unions. In an effort to collectively resolve their marital woes, Felice solicits the help of her bougie best friend and social media maven, Mrs. Tabatha Upton, who has crafted a picture-perfect life one post at a time for her million-plus followers. Together, they cultivate a network of frenemies: Dr. Shelly Chambers, former college classmate, highly sought-after Houston divorce attorney, and uber-abrasive, narcissistic Nigerian queen, Mrs. Erin Randle, a hypersexual and unfaithful man devourer, Ms. Kennedy Kenerson, an over-compromising, bottom-of-the-barrel, self-esteemed wife turned mistress, and lastly, Mrs. Jocelyn Beesly, an uncouth country bumpkin with a weakness for worthless men. All were somehow tainted by the remnants of childhood trauma, which unknowingly caused them to project their unhealed inner children with their fractured thoughts and fragile hearts into their partnerships. Yet when an old flame is rekindled, a secret life is revealed, a scorned lover desires more, and a lovechild resurfaces--all before the first FUPA meeting is even called to order, the women soon realize that what started as a wives' club was quickly turning into a flammable consortium of sorts that would lead to revelations that could cost them their friendships, the marriages they were desperate to save, and something far, far worse...their freedom!
