The intrepid women of The Hot Flash Club are back for the
holidays, soothing jingled nerves and stressed shoppers in
their exclusive spa and celebrating the joys of the season.
In her witty and delightfully wisecracking prose, Nancy
Thayer tells a heartwarming tale packed with fun, secrets,
romance–and an ample dose of good cheer.
When the Hot Flash friends gather at the spa to trim the
Christmas tree, they share steaming mugs of hot chocolate, a
few laughs, and a vow to make this holiday one to remember.
And it is–but not in the cheerful, ho-ho-ho way they
expected. Instead, Christmas brings family conflicts,
household accidents, plane delays–and that’s just the beginning.
After a hazardous holiday season, the women make resolutions
that they intend to keep . . . in a perfect world. But
life–and their friends and relatives–cause complications.
Shirley lends financial support to her boyfriend’s schemes,
which infuriates Alice, whose own son commits an act she’s
not sure she can accept. Marilyn travels to Scotland and
falls in love, but her octogenarian mother needs her at
home. And when Polly and Faye find themselves pitted against
each other by a younger woman, an they overcome this clash
to make a new, entrepreneurial dream come true? Then real
disaster strikes, bringing new challenges and surprising
revelations.
Just as every month of the year throws new problems at us
all, so too does the end of the year give us the chance to
reunite and put these problems into their proper
perspective. And when the Hot Flash Five get together for
the holidays, we should expect nothing less than the unexpected.
