"Summer begins with Mary Kay Andrews, in this delightful summer read about flipping houses, and finding true love. Hattie Kavanaugh went to work helping clean up restored homes for Kavanaugh & Son Restorations at eighteen; married the boss's son at twenty; and was only twenty-five when her husband, Hank, was killed in a motorcycle accident. Broken hearted, but determined to continue the business of their dreams, she takes the life insurance money, buys a small house in a gentrifying neighborhood, flips it, then puts the money into her next project. But that house is a disaster and a money-loser, which rocks her confidence for years to come. Then, Hattie gets a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: star in a beach house renovation reality show called The Homewreckers, cast against a male lead who may be a love interest, or may be the ultimate antagonist. It's a question of who will flip, and who will flop, and will Hattie ever get her happily-ever-after. Filled with Mary Kay Andrews's trademark wit, warmth, junking trips, and house porn, The Homewreckers is a summer beach delight"--… (more)

Not bestseller material, in my opinion. All the characters, including mature adults in their 50s and 60s, seemed to use the word "like" several times in every sentence, like, this is, like, not how most people talk. Not only were the characters (and the romance between them) shallow and under-developed, but the language was atrocious. (Do authors really think every person on the planet has a potty mouth?) This is the first and last book I will ever read by Mary Kay Andrews. ( )

Another fun read from Mary Kay Andrews!. Hattie Kavanaugh has been restoring homes in Savannah, Georgia since she was eighteen. She gets a once I'm a lifetime opportunity when she's asked to star in a beach house renovation show called The Homewreckers. There's a mystery associated with this house along with the drama of renovating on a short 6 week plan. Great beach read! ( )
