Amazon Editorial Review


Take a splash of betrayal, add a few drops of outrage, give a good shake to proper behavior and take a big sip of a cocktail called…Ladies' Night!

Grace Stanton’s life as a rising media star and beloved lifestyle blogger takes a surprising turn when she catches her husband cheating and torpedoes his pricey sports car straight into the family swimming pool. Grace suddenly finds herself locked out of her palatial home, checking account, and even the blog she has worked so hard to develop in her signature style. Moving in with her widowed mother, who owns and lives above a rundown beach bar called The Sandbox, is less than ideal. So is attending court-mandated weekly "divorce recovery" therapy sessions with three other women and one man for whom betrayal seems to be the only commonality. When their “divorce coach” starts to act suspiciously, they decide to start having their own Wednesday "Ladies' Night" sessions at The Sandbox, and the unanticipated bonds that develop lead the members of the group to try and find closure in ways they never imagined. Can Grace figure out a new way home and discover how strong she needs to be to get there?

Heartache, humor, and a little bit of mystery come together in a story about life’s unpredictable twists and turns. Mary Kay Andrews' Ladies' Night will have you raising a glass and cheering these characters on.

Because we all need a "Ladies' Night, every now and then.
Enjoy!

Received in the mail yesterday along with another book, The Moon Dwellers. What a wonderful surprise, a true day-brightening event. Thank you so much! I shall enjoy the read.

As a survivor of a nasty divorce, this was a fun read. Some of the events and actions of these spouses (soon to be ex-spouses) were not unlike things that I have seen happen to others or experienced myself. One ex-sister-in-law twice removed took a ball bat to her ex-husband's car window to get him to back off. As she said, spending a night in jail was worth it since he never went off on her again. Enough said.

The way these women and one man took their lives back through the divorce recovery group...and actually at their Ladies' Nights meetings after their meetings...was absolutely uplifting and fun.

Grace Davenport was truly grace under pressure after her husband Ben royally screwed her out of her business, home, and money--not to mention screwing her assistant, J'aimee. Her one outburst (driving his car into their pool) is really an anomaly, but it lands her in trouble with the judge, and into the divorce recovery group .

In fact, it is all about betrayal as each of these marriages broke down because of cheating spouses (infidelities). Working together, these women and the one lone man work together to rebuild their lives....and figure out what is happening to their "therapist."

Just a fun read, and even provides a happy ending for Grace as she takes back her life and her lifestyle blog, adopts a dog, and finds a new man to love. Truly a win-win for Grace (and a positive lesson for anyone who might find his/herself in a similar situation).

Thanks again, Edwina, for the book. Sipping margaritas with the perfect summer read.
