We see you, stealing a glance at these
pages during your lunch break, in between
errands while the world is calling on your
cell phone and you pretend not to hear.
We understand because we’re just like you. Six dynamic everyday divas, the self-proclaimed Miami
Bombshells, gather every few weeks to kick off their power
pumps, drink wine, gorge themselves on chocolate, and dish
about the costs of having it all (or not): husbands or
lovers, children, money, power, spirituality, and
successful, rewarding careers. During these sessions -- guiltily crammed in between
business trips, charity events, and their children's
activities -- they drop all pretenses and let fly their most
personal bombshells, which eventually landed on the pages of
this book. All of the stories are true. Some are signed,
others are written anonymously, to protect the innocent (and
the guilty). Long ago, the Miami Bombshells refused to accept lives of
quiet desperation, deciding instead to embrace their
imperfections and put their own needs at the top of their
to-do lists. In doing so, they redefine what it means to be
a modern-day bombshell ... it's more about being courageous
than curvaceous. These six brave women divulge their vulnerabilities and most
intimate secrets by hanging their dirty laundry on this
literary clothesline. They describe coping with depression
when expected to be the life of the party, why they fell
into dubious relationships, how they dealt with rape, panic
attacks, romantic email blunders, hair loss, the corporate
vs. family juggling act, and nanny nightmares. All women, no matter how different, go through similar
experiences in life, and just knowing that is sometimes
enough to make it better. Dish & Tell proves that reality is
stranger (and much more interesting) than fiction.
