Women's Fiction Contemporary
A wry, wise new novel of Southern dreams and second
chances.
On the morning of her birthday, Vonda
Thayer awakes from her American Dream to realize she’s
living a domestic nightmare. She plays happy homemaker to
two whiny, self-absorbed teenagers, a ranting, divorced
monster-in-law, and her knocked-up oldest daughter, who’s
just moved home to escape a deadbeat boyfriend. In her
free time, Vonda stalks her no-good husband and his bimbo
du jour. And now her ailing, cantankerous father-in- law—
the monster’s very estranged ex—needs a nursemaid and a
place to recover. Vonda seriously needs to replace that
white picket fence with barbed wire.
When a
hurricane rips through north Florida, it threatens to tear
her already fragile family completely apart. It’s up to
Vonda to help them weather the storm and learn a few
survival instincts in the process. The sun’s going down on
this desperate housewife, and dawn’s breaking on a new,
improved Vonda Thayer…
