When Carlisle Wainwright Cushing, of the old-moneyed Texas
Wainwrights, moved to Boston three years ago to work at one of the
city's most prestigious divorce law firms, she thought she had
escaped the high society she'd grown up in - after all, no one in
Boston, not even her fiance, knew she was an heiress. But now,
Carlisle has been lured back to Texas to deal with her mother's
latest divorce and the family-sponsored 100th annual debutante
ball, which is on the verge of collapse. She's afraid she'll never
get back to Boston, at least with her reputation intact, especially
when good 'ole Southern boy Jack Blair shows up on the opposite
side of the divorce court, making her wonder if he's going after
her mother in the proceedings--or her.
Carlisle's trip home challenges her sense of who she really is
and forces her to face her family's secrets. Funny, smart, and
poignant, "The Ex-Debutante "is a story about the risks one woman
must take if she stands a chance of finding herself, real love, and
her place in that crazy thing we call family.
