Think a Civil War reenactment with crisp, clean white dresses.<br><br>Catfight: An impromptu gathering of not-so-young women on the verge of losing their cool. Think a cotillion with hair-pulling.<br><br>It&#8217;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&#8211;and eighty pounds&#8211;and launched her own business, longs for love; and while Eadie remains married to Trevor, she feels more neglected than ever.<br><br>So the occasion of Nita&#8217;s second wedding seems like just the ticket to cheer up the disconsolate Debs. But they&#8217;ve made a formidable enemy in Virginia Broadwell, first lady of Ithaca and the bride&#8217;s ex-mother-in-law. Hell-bent on vengeance and determined to restore old-school social mores, Virginia hatches a plan so devious it makes her pedicured toes curl in anticipation.<br><br>Soon enough, the women are knocked for a loop&#8211;but you can keep a Kudzu Debutante down for only so long. The one thing stronger than Virginia&#8217;s wrath is the bond between the three friends, who soon learn that one of Virginia&#8217;s Jimmy Choos contains an irresistible Achilles&#8217; heel. With spirit, wit, and down-home gumption, the take-no-prisoners trio decides it&#8217;s time to ditch their cotillion manners as they rally to save Nita&#8217;s marriage, Lavone&#8217;s business, Eadie&#8217;s sanity . . . and the honor of Kudzu Debs the world over. <br><br>Packed with authentic Southern flavor and characters as colorful as an azalea in full bloom, The Secret Lives of the Kudzu Debutantes serves up stinging one-liners and earthy wisdom in equal measure. 1475739 14 8 2007 The Secret Lives of the Kudzu Debutantes: A Novel total:38|5:5|4:21|3:11|2:1|1:0| 38 144 73 7 5 0 false false Thu Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 24 14:14:56 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 24 14:15:59 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sat Apr 25 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Apr 02 12:52:08 -0700 2009 Sat Apr 25 19:29:29 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Thu Jun 11 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Apr 20 08:47:36 -0700 2009 Thu Jun 11 14:32:47 -0700 2009
