Synopsis

Graciela "Ace" Jones is mad—mad at her best friend Lilly who cancels
their annual trip to Panama City for mysterious reasons; at her boss
Catherine for "riding her ass like a fat lady on a Rascal scooter;" at
her friend Chloe's abusive husband; and especially at Mason McKenzie,
the love of her life, who has shown up with a marriage proposal three
years too late. Ace is never mad, though, at her near-constant
companion, an adorable chiweenie dog named Buster Loo. Ace's
anger begins to dissipate as she takes matters into her own hands to
take down Chloe's philandering husband—and to get to the bottom of a
multitude of other scandals plaguing Bugtussle, Mississippi. Then, she
starts to realize that maybe Mason deserves a second chance after all. With
a sharp and distinctive voice, Stephanie McAfee delivers a hilarious
and fast-paced tale about Ace Jones and her two best friends—thick as
thieves and tough as nails—navigating Southern small-town politics and
prejudices, finding love, and standing up for each other all the way.

Goodreads review by Nancy

OK, two and a half stars. There are flashes of real talent here--the deadpan, hilarious voice of the narrator is terrific, about 3/4 of the time. She's the take-no-prisoners friend with whom you hung out in your 20s (or 30s), while you tried to figure out what you were doing with your life. Ace is m......more
