Four Queens

About the Book

Californians Sissy, Lucy, and Mattie are all looking forward to their much needed getaway to Las Vegas; the three best friends expect to shop, soak in the sun, take in the glitz and the glitter, gamble, and meet a few memorable characters. When they are introduced to Boo at a shelter for abused women, they click immediately, and they ask her to join them on their excursion.

But their simple vacation turns out to be anything but a vacation. From the moment they see a bundle thrown out of a van, their trip takes a drastic turn. Inside the blanket the women discover a Doberman pup; they name her Baby and she tags along as the women experience one misadventure after another.

Their story is filled with surprise beginnings and endings for everyone involved, and Sissy, Lucy, Mattie, and Boo definitely fulfill their mission to meet more than a few memorable characters.
