About this item
Cotillion: A formal gathering of bright young women on the verge of entering adulthood, the society pages, and prospective high-tax-bracket marriages. Think a Civil War reenactment with crisp, clean white dresses.Catfight: An impromptu gathering of not-so-young women on the verge of losing their cool. Think a cotillion with hair-pulling.It’s been more than a year since the Kudzu Debutantes exacted sweet, merciless revenge on their cheating husbands, but the repercussions are still palpable throughout Ithaca, Georgia: Nita is anxiously preparing herself for marriage to Jimmy Lee, a man thirteen years her junior; Lavonne, despite having dropped her husband–and eighty pounds–and launched her own business, longs for love; and while Eadie remains married to Trevor, she feels more neglected than ever.

Follow her at www.cathyholton.com and on Twitter.Cathy Holton entertained readers with her stories of strong, intelligent women trying to survive in an often hostile world. The Boston Globe said: "Holton has a lively, fluid style that shifts easily among the viewpoints' of several characters and goes down as easily as sweet tea," while Entertainment Weekly calls her prose "Sharp, witty, and warm." Although grateful for the critical praise, it is the enthusiastic response of readers who tell her they "laughed, cried, and let dinner burn" while reading one of her novels that inspired her most. Sadly, Cathy passed away in 2013 after a long-term illness, authoring five wonderful novels before leaving us. Fortunately for her readers, she left behind a treasure trove of finished and partially finished manuscripts. Her family and publishers can think of no better way to honor her life than to edit and publish these works. To that end, the first of these novels, The Rico Boys will release in late September, 2016, with many more to follow.
