Book Description:
Keeley Murdock's wedding to A.J. Jernigan should have been the social event of the season. But when she catches her fiance doing the deed with her maid of honor at the country club rehearsal dinner, all bets are off. And so is the wedding. Keeley pitches the hissy fit of the century, earning herself instant notoriety in the small town of Madison, Georgia.
Even worse is the financial pressure A.J.'s banking family brings to bear on Keeley's interior design business. But riding to the rescue -- in a vintage yellow Cadillac -- is the redheaded stranger who's bought a failing local bra plant. Will Mahoney hires Keeley to redo the derelict antebellum mansion he's bought. Her assignment: decorate it for the woman of his dreams -- a woman he's never met.
Only a designing woman like Keeley Murdock can find a way to clear her name and give her cheating varmint of an ex-fiance the comeuppance he so richly deserves. And only Mary Kay Andrews can deliver such delicious social satire. With Hissy Fit, she's created a story as outrageous, dishy, and true as Savannah Blues and Little Bitty Lies.
Performed by Isabel Keating

I listened to this book in the car during my commute to work. What a fun read, I couldn't wait to get in the car in the morning & I couldn't wait to head home...and I stayed off the phone & didn't do my customary 'returning of the personal calls' during the commute either. I loved this book from the start. I haven't read Andrews before and now I will order her other books for my beach vacations or when I'm in a mood to listen to something fun & entertaining. I am southern, currently living in Atlanta and TOTALLY identify with the story. I KNOW these women. I liked the little side tracks in the plot. I don't care for stories that are so focused that there are no complications. I loved that I felt Rhett Butler would show up at any moment. It is a typical beach read for me - lots of characters that I could see in my mind. The only character I had a problem with was the Atlanta lawyer - she was supposedly bright but her dialogue was stilted and vapid. I just am not sure any female big city lawyer in a big city firm is going to be that shallow. BUT, other than that, I loved reading this book and I will read her others.

Rebecca H. (Predictable, cute funny story. It's not groundbreaking or a work of literary genius, but it entertained me as I drove from California to Oregon. There is the usual chick lit romance, with a bit of mystery.
Sandra B. (Really cute story - I love the main character and her antics!!! And her bra strap troubles!!! I can relate!
