Desperate Measures

amazon barnes & noble Goodreads
Drawn together over a love of books, three women strike up an unlikely friendship and end up forming bonds that move well beyond what any of them ever imagined possible. Desperate Measures serves up laughter, romance, cookies, tea – and a whole lot of love.

Aimee:

A housewife left in the dust by her philandering husband, with an outdated high school education but a serious talent when it comes to confections…

Elizabeth:

An accountant tired of crunching numbers for hundreds of clients with more money than they know what to do with…

Kiki:

An exotic dancer who wants nothing more than to get out of the game…

Hott Review of Desperate Measures:

Sometimes a woman just needs a friend.

Wow. From page one I was laughing. The, often crude, girly humor was just what I needed after the tension of the past few weeks. Desperate Measures instantly lightened my perspective and made me smile.

I loved each of these girls for different reasons. They each reminded me of myself – in both good and bad ways – as I joined them in their life. This is one book I wish didn’t end. Even through the difficulties, it was fun and light.

While it’s a book I won’t be sharing with family anytime soon it is one I’ll turn to when I need to remember what a wonderful friend does for your life.

I love to read! But I don't always think the synopsis on the backs of books do them justice. I do, however, believe all books should come with an intended rating - or at least a steam FYI. So, I'm taking upon myself to educate all -- christian & secular readers, alike -- on the books behind the synopsis and the possible things you may not want your YA reader to see. Enjoy!
