by Julie Ann Sipos (Author)
Sipos's prose crackles with energy, packing more into a single sentence than some manage on an entire page.-Booklife by Publisher's Weekly
In this spirited satire of sisterhood and survival in small town Middle America, a daring new literary heroine emerges to heal a divided nation-with both sides in firm agreement the other one can keep her.
An imaginative and creative kids' entertainment executive, Jaycee Grayson gets the boot after a bold face-off with the notorious Hollywood boy's club. Armed with a fresh rehab rap sheet and a knack for making miracles out of mishaps, she seeks the unlikely refuge of Littleburgh, Wisconsin, Home of the World's Most Wonderful Girls.
Expecting to find like-minded ladies helming this world-famous doll empire, Jaycee confronts an unfriendly army of Prairie Karens weaving a flimsy fiction of secrets and masks. Even the empress of Littleburgh's lucrative legend may never have existed at all.
Fueled by laugh out loud irreverence and wit as sharp as a stiletto skating on thin ice, a twisted plot leads Jaycee and a quirky collection of misfits on a heartfelt, hopeful, and hilarious search for the truth. But cruel news from home forces Jaycee's ironic choice between returning to a shattered dream and toppling a billion-dollar showcase of female hypocrisy at her own peril.
A blockbuster finale reveals a powerful ally even life-long readers of girl-powered page-turners won't see coming!
