“Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” alum Monica Garcia claimed that Jen Shah’s husband, Sharrieff Shah, came onto her, according to Heather Gay.
Us Weekly obtained an advanced excerpt of Gay’s forthcoming book, “Good Time Girl,” in which she writes about an an alleged encounter between Garcia — who once worked for convicted fraudster Jen as part of her “Shah Squad” — and Sharrieff, 53.
“In a final Hail Mary attempt for a handout she reached out to Jen’s husband Sharrieff,” Gay, 50, pens in a chapter titled, “Receipts! Proof! Timeline! Screenshots!,” which discusses the breakdown of Garcia’s relationship with Jen, 51.
“Supposedly, they agreed to meet up in the parking lot of a gas station and, according to Monica, the exchange quickly turned romantic. She claims he tried to kiss her, but she pushed him off, saying, ‘We can’t.’ Sharrieff got out of the car and immediately left.”

8 According to Gay, “no one believed” Garcia, 41, who was allegedly “getting desperate and was known for cranking up the delusion when cornered.”
“By all accounts, she had been pining for Sharrieff from the moment she met him, and this was one of her absurd fantasies. Still, she swore that they had kissed, but nothing more had happened between them after that night,” Gay writes, alleging that Garcia “was notoriously full of lies.”
Gay claims that Jen — who is currently serving time in federal prison for orchestrating a decade-long, nationwide telemarketing scheme — “pulled away” from Garcia after she asked for proper compensation for being Jen’s round-the-clock assistant.
“She wasn’t getting paid and now she was definitely getting ghosted. Monica was in a tailspin,” Gay pens, claiming that Garcia “was beside herself with rage.”

8 The alleged rage inspired Garcia to create Reality Von (Tea)se, a now-defunct Instagram page dedicated to exposing Jen and gossiping about the “RHOSLC” cast.
Garcia’s involvement with the salacious account was revealed by Gay during the Season 4 finale, which shocked and horrified the other “Housewives.”
Garcia — who previously claimed that she testified against Shah in her trial — was subsequently let go after just one season on the Bravo reality series.
In a statement to Page Six, Garcia denied Gay’s remarks about the smooch she allegedly claimed Sharrieff attempted to give her.

8 “I have never said that Sharrieff Shah and I kissed nor has there ever been anything romantic or physical between Sharrieff and I,” she insisted.
“To so carelessly write such untrue and damaging allegations in permanent ink at the expense of others for financial gain is deplorable and sick.”
Garcia called it “sad and worrisome” that Gay “has nothing else to write about than twisted and false allegations in a desperate attempt to try and tarnish the reputations of two families.
“The lies told about me by Heather continue to reach new lows and the only fantasies happening here are the ones she’s concocting in her book.”
