Revenge of the Kudzu Debutantes

Hunting trips will never be the same: Eadie's husband has left her for a younger version, Nita discovers that her husband has been unfaithful and Lavonne feels her marriage is slipping away from her. Then they find out that their husband's annual hunting trips have been more than advertised. Not only the animals but prostitutes have been provided. This is the final straw and the 3 friends swing into action.

The next hunting trip will be filled with surprises and if you're in a public place while you're reading it, you may find people staring at you because you're laughing out loud and shaking your head!!

When its all over, one of them will see her husband in a new light, one will find a new (and better love) and one will be crowned show more the queen of the Kudzu Ball - which is one of the funniest festivals you will ever read about.

One of the things I liked about this book (besides the fact it made me laugh more than once) is that even tho its about revenge, it is not mean-spirited.

A really fun read! show less

This book has been compared to THE FIRST WIVES CLUB … southern style! At a holiday party three wives discover that their husbands’ annual hunting trip is less about hunting wild game and more about hunting women. After a little time of self-serving pity parties, they get together to plot revenge. Simple things really … like arranging this year’s bevy of beauties to be men in drag (always a nasty surprise) or selling a prize antique Duesenberg out from under a husband’s nose.

This book does not pretend to be anything but what it is. A nice fun read, great for the beach or patio … hmmmmm …. Maybe with a margarita on the side?

Loved it! Have read all her books! Nita Broadwell, a good Southern girl from a good Southern family, is jolted out of complacency when she discovers condoms in her husband’s shirt pocket -Between clinging to denial and dodging her overbearing mother-in-law, Nita is also trying to break her addiction to steamy bodice-ripper novels. Only now it appears she’s authoring her own real-life romance tale with a hunky handyman thirteen years her junior.

Booklist
Not since the Ya-Ya Sisterhood has there been a group of good ol' gals to rival Holton's trio of scorned Southern women. Best friends for years, earthy Lavonne, mousy Nita, and feisty Eadie are at once privy to and frequently at odds with the creme de la creme of Ithaca, Georgia, society, courtesy of their husbands' stations in life. All three are married to pillars of the community, lawyers who care more for their annual Montana hunting trip than they do for their spouses. As the preparations for this year's getaway ratchet into high gear, the wives uncover evidence that the only conquests their husbands are interested in making are of the two-footed, female variety. Hell hath no fury, as the saying goes, and the wives concoct show more a deliciously devious scheme to make their husbands pay--big time--for their indiscretions. Irresistibly entertaining, Holton's debut is hilarious, a cunning, rollicking addition to the popular Southern "steel magnolias" genre. show less
