Horrible Women, Wonderful Girls

Addiction, reinvention, and the chaos of toxic workplaces - all wrapped in biting wit and unpredictable turns... Sipos's prose crackles with energy, packing more into a single sentence than some manage on an entire page. - Booklife at Publishers Weekly

Freshly rehabbed and on the run from scandal, Jaycee Grayson did not come to play. A disgraced kids' entertainment exec with no filter and nothing to lose, she's followed the hollow promise of sisterhood to Littleburgh's world-famous doll empire. Nothing is as it seems - not the town, not the empress behind the lucrative legend, and definitely not the two-faced army of Prairie Karens running the show.

When it turns out those plastic smiles mask a billion-dollar web of secrets and lies, Jaycee rallies a succession of quirky outcasts, each more desperate for a life win. But the race to torch a toxic fairy tale could very well dash all their dreams - and kill her career for good at the bottom of a bottle. With cold news from home and a three-way romance imploding in the town square, both bedroom and boardroom signal looming doom. Now Jaycee faces the ironic choice between exposing a showcase of heartland hypocrisy-and embracing the messy misfits fast becoming her last, best shot at home, family, and genuine connection.

With the stiletto-sharp sarcasm of its flawed but fearless heroine, this timely tale of a dollhouse divided delivers a satirical thrill ride of soaring hope, small-town deception, and truths that sting like a slap in Spanx.
