Twenty years ago, when they were teenagers, Holly and Nicola
were the outsiders at summer camp. Holly was the plump one,
a dreamer who longed to be an artist. Nicola was theshy,
plain one who wanted nothing more than to be beautiful.
Their cabin nemesis was Lexi. Rich, spoiled, evil Lexi. One
night, Holly and Nicola team up to pull one, daring act of
vengeance against Lexi. But they never dream that this one
act will have repercussions that will reach into the future,
even twenty years later. And they never realize the secret
pain that Lexi holds very close, and how their need for
revenge costs Lexi a great deal more than they could have
ever imagined.
Today, Holly is a successful gallery owner, who has put her
own artistic dreams on hold. She struggles with her weight
as well as for approval from her constantly-criticizing
boyfriend. Nicola, is an almost-famous actress who believes
that one little plastic surgery fix is just what she needs
to put her over the edge into fame. And Lexi…Lexi is down on
her luck and totally broke and alone.
Holly will do anything to be thin. Lexi will do anything to
be rich. And Nicola will do anything to be pretty. Thin Rich
Pretty is the story of three women who believe that
happiness is the next dress size down, the next dollar

But mostly it’s the story of how three women save each
other, and show each other the path to true contentment
within themselves. Told with Beth Harbison’s knack for
thirty and forty something nostalgia, and heartwarming
humor, Thin, Rich, Pretty will strike a chord with any woman
who has ever looked in the mirror, or the bank, and said,
"if only..."
