Smart Blondes

By Sonia Koso

Austin socialite Carrie Pryce has no clue her criminally charming husband is carrying on with another woman until she returns home unexpectedly, mistakes the sounds of passion for a home-invasion robbery and accidently shoots him in the backside. Stunned, Carrie drives all night to her quirky hometown and collapses in a near-catatonic state. A crew of ladies spanning three generations realize it's up to them to help Carrie get her life out of the ditch. Known as the "Presbyterian Mafia," these are not sweet old gals. They have a book club that never reads, a garden club that doesn't garden, and a bible study class that gossips about the Methodists. They're known around town for antics including catfights, car chases and Voodoo rituals. The women enlist Carrie's former childhood best friend Portia (now a lawyer) and her flamboyant cousin Eric (recently returned from New York) in their effort. While dealing with the after-effects of her imprudent gunplay and managing a hair color disaster, Carrie meets Rhett Richards. He's an attractive oil field worker who can make women think un-Christian thoughts by the mere act of wearing a pair of tight wranglers. Carrie soon learns that hometowns can be the perfect places to bury old scandals and create new ones.
