From Madame de Pompadour, the famed mistress of Louis XV, to Pamela Harriman, who married into the English aristocracy and the American plutocracy, there is a rich history of women who have found glamour and wealth in the arms of a billionaire. But contrary to what you may think, fortune hunting is no idle pursuit. Like diving for treasure, its a real job. Some women strive to be CEOs; others prefer to wed them. Youll meet todays dazzling successes in this book.
What kind of woman does it take to make the Midas marriage? Exploring the lives of the great fortune hunters of our day, reporter and former gossip columnist Charlotte Hays answers this tantalizing question. Youll learn about the South Carolina woman who took a trip around the world with a shadowy shipping magnate, only to meet and marry a philandering marquis. Youll see what methods these women use to lure their powerful men, including one playful fortune seeker who, at a very high-society soire, hurled a piece of bread at her intended beau, starting a food fight. Youll meet the New York socialite who remarried so quickly after a divorce, her ex claimed she was a bigamist.
What are their recipes for riches? Can a genuinely nice woman pursue this career? What does love have to do with it? With original interviews and photos, Hays casts a light on the determination, skill, and-yes, sometimes-ruthlessness that have shaped some of the most successful-and lucrative-unions of our time.
