Nothing interesting ever happens in Marvel, Texas…..
At least that's Natalie Griffin's opinion. She’s a beauty pageant consultant by day and tamer-of-bridezilla by night. Once again she’s catering to the every whim of her best friend, Amanda. Heiress to her family's oil company, Amanda Cates is the picture of beauty and perfection. However, she’s been in the middle of drama her entire life.
Marrying wealthy ego-driven Matt Kendrick is no exception. His family practically dictates the town, and he has finally weaseled his way into Amanda's heart. Will she make the mistake of her life by saying I do?
After uncovering dirt on Matt, Natalie is forced to call in for enforcements. Childhood friends and fellow bridesmaids are perfect for this job. Carlie Porter, tough rocker chic turned surfer from California. Arabella (Ari) Alejandro, spicy Latina, who hails from New York. Put these women together, and you have the pack that have defended and rescued poor Amanda all their lives.
Will the three women be able to convince Amanda that she is in for the greatest heartbreak of all time? Or will they have to resort to more drastic measures? A plan devised by Ari, a best-selling author goes into full effect. It will be best known as 'Operation Bride Rescue.'
The journey taken out of Marvel will reveal adventure, disaster, secrets, revelations, and a chance for God to show these women what they are truly made of.

From Booklist
Family secrets, redemption, and the power of love are Trobaugh's themes in this affecting novel set in a small southern town in the not-too-distant past. Jordan is a thoughtful and dreamy child, who escapes her stepfather's coldness and her mother's distance through the understanding of Peony, the family cook, whose last name, probably not coincidentally, is also Jordan. Peony's sister, Pansy, newly released from prison after serving time for accidentally killing her abusive husband, finds a place caring for Miss Amylee, Jordan's elderly grandmother. These African American, flower-named sisters, with their good cooking, good manners, and deep religious faith, find ways of dealing with a recalcitrant teen waitress, with Miss Amylee's fading attention, and with their beloved but simpleminded brother. Trobaugh's prose is deft and sweet: "'My name is Isaiah' [he] said in a way that made the word float out into the air all decorated with little curlicues." A comforting read. GraceAnne DeCandido

In New York, Walt Lawson is about to lose his girlfriend Vanessa. In Los Angeles, Raymond and Mia James are about to lose their house. Within days, none of it will matter.
When Vanessa dies of the flu, Walt is devastated. But she isn't the last. The virus quickly kills billions, reducing New York to an open grave and LA to a chaotic wilderness of violence and fires. As Raymond and Mia hole up in an abandoned mansion, where they learn to function without electricity, running water, or neighbors, Walt begins an existential walk to LA, where Vanessa had planned to move when she left him. He expects to die along the way.
Months later, a massive vessel appears above Santa Monica Bay. Walt is attacked by a crablike monstrosity in a mountain stream. The virus that ended humanity wasn't created by humans. It was inflicted from outside. The colonists who sent it are ready to finish the job--and Earth's survivors may be too few and too weak to resist.
