About Hissy Fit: A Novel

Product Description "Andrews is at her best in this thoroughly satisfying story with the right blend of mystery, romance, and sharply funny writing." — Orlando Sentinel A delicious tale of revenge and renovation, Hissy Fit tells of a wronged spitfire who’s determined to see that the no-good lowdown, lying, cheating ex-fiancé who ruined her life and her business gets the comeuppance he deserves . . . even as she struggles to revitalize a broken-down mansion for a hunky, if slightly odd, local businessman. Whether it’s a mystery, sassy women’s fiction, or a combination of the two, New York Times bestselling author Mary Kay Andrews always gives her fans a read to remember. And now she’s throwing a Hissy Fit, in the best possible sense. If you like the novels of Fannie Flagg, Jennifer Crusie, Adriana Trigiani, and Emily Giffin, or are a devoted follower of Rebecca Wells or Jill Conner Browne’s Sweet Potato Queens, then Mary Kay’s Hissy Fit is not to be missed. Review “Laced with humor and a sense of place that oozes the aroma of magnolia blossoms.” — Atlanta Journal-Constitution “Southern-fried romp...the furnishing descriptions are scrumptious and the love story’s sweet.” — Entertainment Weekly “Readers who enjoy books set in the South that deal with love, friendship, and getting even will find themselves laughing out loud at this latest novel by Andrews.” — Library Journal (starred review) “Andrews is at her best in this thoroughly satisfying story with the right blend of mystery, romance and sharply funny writing.” — Orlando Sentinel “Sharp Southern treat....a fascinating peek into the luscious world of designer home furnishing, sure to make readers drool with envy.” — Publishers Weekly “Andrews’ descriptions of antique furniture and heart-pine flooring are so lush and appealing that they will seduce even the decorating-challenged. Throw in the idyllic southern setting and the humorous, often-scintillating banter, and you’ve got yourself another winning read.” — Booklist “Delightful and hilarious.” — Chattanooga Times Free Press “Sweet and light and fun.” — St. Petersburg Times “A truly rollicking tale…. If you are interested in interior design, Southern manners, heartache and romance or just a well-told story, Hissy Fit is for you.” — Charlotte Observer (North Carolina) “There’s plenty of substance here for fans of dark comedy and high-end interior design.” — Fort Myers (Fla.) News-Press “Aimed at the shopaholics among us.” — Memphis Commercial Appeal “A fun, romantic ride through a small Southern town replete with money, style, tradition and a few secrets...shrewdly observed....Andrews weaves decorating, romance, a taste of revenge and the search for the answer to a family mystery into the fabric of a small Southern city, and delivers another fun, high-energy novel.” — Savannah Morning News “When Andrews throws a fun ‘Hissy Fit,’ just give up, give in...entertaining.” — Star News (Wilmington, NC) “A good old-fashioned romp with a modern Southern belle taking no prisioners...entertains on many levels. — Nashville Tennessean From the Back Cover Keeley Murdock's wedding to A.J. Jernigan should have been the social event of the season. But all bets are off when she catches her fiancé doing the deed with her maid of honor at the country club rehearsal dinner. The wedding's off, too, as Keeley pitches the hissy fit of the century, earning herself instant notoriety in the small town of Madison, Georgia. Now A.J.'s unscrupulous banking family is bringing financial pressure to bear on Keeley's interior design business. But a redheaded stranger in a vintage yellow Cadillac is riding to her rescue. Will Mahoney, the new owner of a failing local bra plant, is about to offer the designing woman just what she needs: a plum decorating assignment, a chance to clear her name, and a golden opportunity to give her cheating varmint of an ex-fiancé the comeuppance he so richly deserves.
