Synopsis
"This terrific debut lifts the veil on the charming old city of Charleston and a prominent Lowcountry family to deliver an entertaining story about becoming yourself without totally rejecting your past. Plus: debutante balls! I love this novel." --Lauren Weisberger, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Devil Wears Prada and When Life Gives You Lululemons A captivating debut novel that looks inside the private lives of Charleston aristocracy, where a former debutante learns that sometimes good behavior leads to bad decisions. Tourists think they see the real Charleston, but Simons Smythe knows there's more to her hometown than sweet tea and Southern hospitality. Behind the walled gardens, inside the fabled historic homes, live Charleston's elite. Simons was born into this powerful aristocracy that has quietly ruled the city for centuries. Simons's family has a banner year ahead; Her older sister will give birth to her second child, and her younger sister will make her debut--a series of cocktail parties and balls to introduce her to society. And in one year, Simons plans to marry Trip. She hopes that's enough time to fall back in love. Simons produces the news at a local TV station, a job that increasingly tests her loyalty to her family and friends. On her days off, Simons surfs the waves of Folly Beach, crabs the salty rivers of Edisto Island, and follows her wayward heart to King Street bars. The one touchstone in this confusing time is her elegant and secretive grandmother, Laudie, who--repeatedly and mysteriously--urges Simons to "be brave". In this sparkling novel, Simons unlocks riddles from the past, flirts with a new future, and discovers that some rules are made to be broken., "This terrific debut lifts the veil on the charming old city of Charleston and a prominent Lowcountry family to deliver an entertaining story about becoming yourself without totally rejecting your past. Plus: debutante balls! I loved this novel." -Lauren Weisberger, #1 bestselling author of The Devil Wears Prada and When Life Gives You Lululemons A captivating debut novel that looks inside the private lives of Charleston aristocracy, where a former debutante learns that sometimes good behavior leads to bad decisions. Tourists think they see the real Charleston, but there's more to this popular travel destination than sweet tea and Southern hospitality. Behind the walled gardens of the fabled historic homes live Charleston's elite. Simons Smythe was born into this powerful network that has quietly ruled the city for centuries, and she's waking to its arrogance. Her family has a banner year ahead. In October, her older sister will give birth to her second child. In November, her younger sister will make her debut-a series of cocktail parties and balls to introduce her to society. And the following May, Simons is due to marry Trip; she hopes a year is enough time to fall back in love. Simons produces the news at a local TV station. A judge-a family friend-was taken to jail and released just hours later with no charge. Airing the full story of this prominent local strains Simons's relationship with her family. Calling off the wedding jeopardizes those ties even more. On her days out of the office, Simons surfs the waves of Folly Beach, crabs the salty rivers of Edisto Island, and follows her wayward heart to King Street bars. She also visits her grandmother and confidante, Laudie. They were born with the same traits: wide-set eyes and a rebellious nature, but something happened to Laudie in her youth that crushed her spirit. Since then, she's harbored a secret. It's stamped in the soles of her Capezio dancing shoes; it's coiled into her low ballerina bun. A dramatic turn of events threatens Laudie's life-and her ability to tell Simons what really happened long ago. In this sparkling novel, Simons unlocks riddles from the past while discovering that some rules are made to be broken.

- 1***1 (50)- 買家留下的信用評價。過去 1 個月購買已獲認證No poster. And book was beat up pretty bad. Not like adveritised. Torn pages and writing inside. Not like advertised. Seller was quickly responsive. But i don't feel like going through all the hassle to return it for a refund. After taking the time to read descriptions and reviews on several other copies and sellers , choosing this one and it just being junk and no poster. Screw it. Already wasted enough time on this junk. Buyer beware! NOT AS ADVERTISED!
