Book Description
Summer is a time for teachers to relax, take time for themselves before the start of the new school year. But Dina Salazar, a Latina school teacher with an inquisitive mind, finds herself with a mystery on her hands, one that involves her brother-in-law, Jesus. Jesus is lovingly referred to as “el tonto”, or the fool, by the family, and yet somehow this fool has latched on to a job that is not only lucrative, but ridiculously easy. Every Friday night, he drives a van filled with excited gamblers to a faraway casino. While they risk their money, he sits in a hotel room, eating and drinking at his employers’ expense, then drives them back in the morning. All for a cool two thousand dollars! What is wrong with this picture? As if this isn’t bad enough, Dina’s on-again, off-again relationship with fiancé Rick Ramos seems to revolve around his custody fight with his ex—the one he cheated on Dina with—for a little girl who isn’t even his. Dina is torn between wanting to support Rick and not having maternal feelings for the difficult child. Enter private investigator Gil Luna, and all bets are off! Can they save Jesus from himself… and, if so, at what cost?

Book Description
A clothes designer tries to coordinate her out-of-control life, in a novel from the New York Times–bestselling author that’s “juicy good fun” (Newsday). All of Karen Kahn’s dreams seem to be coming true. She’s been honored with the fashion industry’s most coveted award, her marriage is thriving, and some very impressive money is being dangled in front of her in a proposed buyout. The only thing missing is what she craves most—a baby. When she receives the heartbreaking news that she’ll never be able to have a child, it feels like the doctor’s verdict has pulled a loose thread—and suddenly everything seems to be unraveling. Now she has to take a hard look at her life and figure out what really suits her and what doesn’t . . . “This new novel by the author of The First Wives Club works at every level. An engaging, behind-the-scenes look at the fashion industry, it lays bare the frenetic pace, cutthroat competition and chronic backbiting of the world of couture. Also an engrossing family saga, it shows 40-year-old Karen, who is infertile, desperately trying to adopt a baby and, as an adopted child herself, searching for her birth mother. The narrative also offers a hilariously dark portrait of Karen’s immediate—and totally dysfunctional—family. A glittering New York social backdrop, plenty of namedropping, romance, some outstandingly creative characters . . . A book that fairly hums with excitement.” —Publishers Weekly
