Back-of-the-Book-Blurb Friday #8

Blog buddy Sioux is hosting Back-of-the-Book-Blurb Friday. I have 150 words to entice you to buy my fake book. Today Val treats you to a ride in the country. A book suitable for packin’ in your saddlebags along with your corn dodgers that Chen Lee provided, most likely without the help of General Sterling Price. Come on! Have some true grit and fake-buy my fake book!

Up Against the Wall Redneck Mothers

You watched the reality show! Now get the book! True fake tales of redneck mothers as told by TLC, in the vein of My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding.

Just hours after saying "I do," Lucille is contemplating a fine time to leave her new mate, Daddy Warbucks. So what if he has three hungry children and a crop in the field? That devil went down to Georgia! Whose bed have his boots been under?

Lucille’s been lookin’ for love in all the wrong places. This ain't her first rodeo. She brought a child into this marriage that's destined for D-I-V-O-R-C-E. Life ain't getting’ easier for her boy named Sue. Lucille is sleepin' single in a double bed tonight. Down in Chattahoochee, at the Heartbreak Hotel.

Will Daddy W. track her down to make her queen of his double-wide trailer? Will Lucille stand by her man? (148 words)
