by Plum Sykes
The author of Bergdorf Blondes returns with a follow up..... Lauren Blount's life is beautifully arranged: she's very rich, very young, very thin, very pretty -- and very, very divorced. She is the most reckless and glamorous of Manhattan’s Debutante Divorcée set. Lauren captivates Sylvia Mortimer, the group's token newlywed. But while Lauren sets out on a morality-lite, orgasm-heavy "Make Out Challenge," Sylvia discovers her marriage isn’t exactly an Eternity ad -- especially when the city's most notorious Husband Huntress zeros in on her spouse.
"The glamorous backdrop of elite New York will enchant Sykes's many fans.... Yet the book does have broader appeal, as this extreme lifestyle is simultaneously embraced and skewered with a delicious, almost Wodehousian flair." - Library Journal.
" The semi-existent plot and ditzy characters serve as background for a lesson in what to wear if you have money to burn." - Kirkus.
