Ace has left the tiny Mississippi town of Bugtussle for the palm fronds
and mojitos of Pelican Cove, Florida. She's finally opening her
long-dreamed-of art gallery, is kick-starting a life with her fiancé,
Mason, and has vowed to leave her straight-talking, sassy ways behind
her. From now on, she's going to be as sweet as sugar. Unfortunately,
something comes along to sour her plans.
That something is Mrs.
Lenore Kennashaw and her coterie of crones. They're a bunch of snippy,
snarky, and just plain mean ol' ladies who aren't quite as smart or rich
as they'd like to think they are. But that doesn't stop them from
treating everyone else like second-class citizens. And when Ace
inadvertently takes some of the steam from Mrs. Kennashaw's stride, she
becomes their number-one enemy. But with the support of a new group of fabulous
friends, as well as her friends from Bugtussle—and her always-faithful
chiweenie, Buster Loo—Ace will find a way to make it, even if she has to
throw some weight around . . .

      “I’m going to be nice. Even if it kills me,” Ace Jones declares in McAfee’s latest (after Diary of a Mad Fat Girl). The Southern girl with a big attitude may bite her tongue when she starts a new life in the exclusive community of Pelican Cove, Fla., with her lawyer fiancé, Mason McKenzie, and a new art gallery. Before long, Mason’s long hours on the job have Ace questioning their future together, and Lenore Kennashaw, Ace’s arch nemesis in Pelican Cove, seems to be doing everything in her power to ensure that Ace fails at her endeavors. Lenore may have her cronies, but there are a set of wily, witty, and free-spirited women who recognize her as a fraud and befriend Ace. Will Ace’s willpower hold, or will she release her full fury and show Lenore who is really queen? Though Ace struggles with love and career, McAfee’s latest is fun and clever, and Ace is still a firecracker if not the full-out brush fire she once was. An overly melancholy ending leaves the reader guessing if Ace will retreat or push forward with all guns blazing next time out. Agent: Susanna Einstein and Molly Reese, LJK Literary Management.
