“. . . a beautifully complex array of characters that touch your heart.” –A Bookish Escape
Today, Wild Women Authors focus on Greeting Cards for Exes, a contemporary women’s fiction, written by Rebekah L. Purdy, and recently released by Rowan Prose Publishing
About the Book: Piper Mishner has spent the last year trying to get over her ex, which
is hard to do after he decides to move into the apartment next to hers with his
new fiancé. As if she needs the reminder of how painful the breakup was. Not to
mention, her job as a greeting card writer is now at risk due to her cynicism
about love.
“I’m bored with you and
need a change.”
The infamous words of
Kerrie Holloway’s ex-husband, who doesn’t seem to understand the concept of
being an “ex” since he wants her to pretend for their kids and family that
they’re still together. While dating others and living in the same house. She
gets a job in sales at a greeting card company, and is finally on the way to
saving for her own place.
Maude Gilchrist has spent
over fifty years married to the same man. A man who, one day, just leaves. No
goodbye. No explanation. He was just gone. Bitter and alone, she decides to
postpone retirement from the greeting card company. Although writing sappy
cards about love is the last thing she wants to do.
Through lunch hour talks,
weekend getaways, and drunken brawls, the ladies of All For You Greeting Cards
Company help heal one another’s wounds and learn there are more important
things in life than having a man. There may be a generational gap, but they all
have the “ex-factor” in common.

ReplyDeleteSuch a unique plot! I used to work for a greeting card company (not writing them) and saw many crazy cards. I can just imagine the sort of cards these ladies would like to write.
