Dixie Divas
Virginia Brown
from LibraryThing Early Reviewers
The Divas are on the case. Wine. Chocolate. Transvestite strippers. Just another good-time get-together for the Dixie Divas of historic Holly Springs, Mississippi, where moonlight and magnolias mingle with delicious smalltown scandal. But Eureka "Trinket" Truevine, the newest Diva, gets more than she bargained for when she finds her best Diva girlfriend Bitty Hollandale's ex-husband in Bitty's hall closet. He's dead. Very dead. Now Trinket and the Divas have to help Bitty finger the murderer and clear her name.

by Cherry Cheva
Going to Yale has been Kate's dream for years. She is overworked and under-rested and falls asleep at her computer one night. She wakes up to find she has a computer generated twin.

Hot Mess
Julie Kraut & Shallon Lester

With her best friend and her plans to give Carrie Bradshaw (Sex in the City) a run for her money she is expecting a galmourous summer. But when your only friend is boy crazy, you have a small town budget and spend 8 hours a day working for the devil on Dockers, summer is turning into one hot mess.
