About Horrible Women, Wonderful Girls: A Jaycee Grayson Novel
KIDS ENTERTAINMENT EXEC JAYCEE GRAYSON THOUGHT SHE left horrible behind with the men of #MeToo Hollywood. That is until she encounters the women of Wonderful Girls—a fierce secret sisterhood running the famous high-end doll company in Littleburgh, Wisconsin. The giant welcome pie has barely cooled before Jaycee senses something amiss lurking behind the façade of this storybook village, where she soon suspects the “Midwest Nice” meddlers in mom jeans of harboring a billion-dollar secret. Even the empress of Littleburgh’s lucrative legend may never have existed at all.
Rallying a cast of quirky misfits, Jaycee plots a rebellion sure to become her greatest production yet. Either that or the career killer that sullies her spirit, breaks her sobriety, and stops her meaningful search for belonging dead in its tracks. With a sticky love triangle imploding and some heartbreaking news from home, Jaycee faces a cruel choice between retreating to a shattered dream and fighting for a flimsy future exposed at her own peril.
Buckle in for Jaycee Grayson’s heartfelt and hilarious thrill ride across The Urban Frontier. This spirited satire probes post-contemporary feminism under the hopeful gaze of a resilient new heroine resolved to heal a divided nation—whether it wants her to or not.
