SummaryA novel full of Southern charm, characters, food, and the
difficulties of keeping secrets in a small town
Georgia Elliot grew up in Ocean Sands, a small Gulf town
full of Southern charm—and a super-efficient grapevine.
So the few secrets she's managed to keep are precious,
including that she's the inventor of TV's hottest new
kitchen gadget, the Miracle Chef. A second-generation beauty
queen, Georgia turns to women she knows she can trust to
keep her secret from her controlling society Mama: the Tiara
Club. All the members are veterans of the pageant circuit,
but they've just admitted one woman who doesn't fit
in—Sierra Riley, a Yankee who's never taped her breasts
or smeared glue on her butt to wow the judges. And this year
the Tiara Club is determined to help Sierra win the coveted
Shrimp Queen crown. Add in an impending wedding and the
Club's attempts to keep Georgia's secret, and the members of
the Tiara Club have all they can do to hold on to their
poise, their friendships, and their sense of humor.
