Skinny Women Are Perfect

About the Book

Rory Carter grew up obsessed with her looks. Teased relentlessly about her weight, Rory was happy to leave her past behind when she enrolled in a Washington, DC, college and met her new best friends, Sierra, BJ, and Neekoo. Now a loving wife, devoted mother, and the owner of an image-branding agency, Rory is the one who keeps it all together. Years later, it is obvious she is perfect. But what about the other three?

Fast-talking and unfiltered, Sierra finds solace as a therapist who helps people overcome their hardships. BJ is a brilliant and beautiful fashionista who proudly showcases her culinary prowess at her well-known restaurant. The notoriously shy Neekoo has made her mark in Washington, DC, as a renowned journalist. On the surface, it appears that the girlfriends have the world in the palm of their hands. But what no one knows is that deadly secrets lurk in the midst of the seemingly perfect lives of these women—secrets that could cause each of their worlds to crumble.

In this compelling tale, an unanticipated intervention forces four long-time friends to face their personal demons and decide if preserving their picture-perfect images is worth the hefty price they have already paid.
