YOUNG RICH WIDOWS Book Launch Party with Vanessa Lillie, Kimberly Belle, Layne Fargo, and Cate Holahan on Wednesday, April 3 at 6:30 PM
The ‘80s are coming with the launch of Young Rich Widows, a "frothy fun" thriller set in 1980s Providence.
Grab your sequins and shoulder pads for a wild night at Ink Fish Books with all four coauthors plus themed drinks, best ‘80s dressed contest (with prizes!), and a playlist full of your crimped hair favs.
About the Book
The First Wives Club with ‘80s vibes and murders galore, Young Rich Widows is an over the-the-top, riotous thriller following four widows, each written by a different author, who find themselves at the center of a dangerous game when their four partners are killed in a plane crash and the women discover there was millions of dollars on-board—all missing, and all owed to a notorious mob boss (who just happens to have a pack of wolves hidden away in his monstrous mansion).
Cleverly written, expertly plotted, with pacing quicker than four widows on the run from the mob, Young Rich Widows is a cult-classic in the making—a wildly entertaining romp, perfect for fans of Stone Cold Fox and Jeneva Rose.
Initially released as an Audible original, Young Rich Widows will be published in trade paperback on April 2, 2024.
