Publisher's summary

Take a splash of betrayal, add a few drops of outrage, give a good shake to proper behavior and take a big sip of a cocktail called…Ladies' Night!

Grace Stanton's life as a rising media star and beloved lifestyle blogger takes a surprising turn when she catches her husband cheating and torpedoes his pricey sports car straight into the family swimming pool. Grace suddenly finds herself locked out of her palatial home, checking account, and even the blog she has worked so hard to develop in her signature style. Moving in with her widowed mother, who owns and lives above a rundown beach bar called The Sandbox, is less than ideal. So is attending court-mandated weekly "divorce recovery" therapy sessions with three other women and one man for whom betrayal seems to be the only commonality. When their "divorce coach" starts to act suspiciously, they decide to start having their own Wednesday "Ladies' Night" sessions at The Sandbox, and the unanticipated bonds that develop lead the members of the group to try and find closure in ways they never imagined. Can Grace figure out a new way home and discover how strong she needs to be to get there?

Heartache, humor, and a little bit of mystery come together in a story about life's unpredictable twists and turns. Mary Kay Andrews' Ladies' Night will have you raising a glass and cheering these characters on.

“Kathleen McInerney does a terrific job bringing the characters to life in this witty story…McInerney makes each of the characters distinct and recognizable and gives each the perfect voice, accent, and vocal mannerisms. Most enjoyable and well performed.” —AudioFile Magazine

“Tongue-in-cheek humor, wit, and sophistication are the hallmarks of this eyebrow-raising life adventure, sure to provide a popular pick for public library audiobook collections.” —Wisconsin Book Watch

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I really enjoyed it.

It's no Savannah Blues, but I liked it...

I'm not going to give this one 5 stars simply because I think some of the character development here was not MK's best. It would have been nice to see inside the lives a little more of the other members of the divorce recovery group.

If divorce is your thing, I would recommend Mary Kay's Savannah Blues!

great story

love love love this one...... funny real fast paced never a dull moment the characters stand out and keep you laughing work every penny

Enjoyable read and listen

Would you consider the audio edition of Ladies' Night to be better than the print version?

This story was different from what I thought it would be from the title. Did not read print version but as an audio very good.

Any additional comments?

The story was good a little hard to believe at some points but others very dead on....I found that I was easily angered and upset for the characters and could feel the angst and struggles they were faced with...but yet the reality of how things were resolved were a little to easy....all and all a good enjoyable listen...makes the commute to work a bit easier !

Leading lady drove me crazy

I was so exasperated by the nonsense decisions or non-decisions of the leading lady, especially in the first part of the book that I almost stopped listening. I powered through and overall, I did enjoy the book.

Another must read by Mary Kay Andrews!

Loved the characters in this book. Great story line! would love to see additional books come out looking at the lives, loves and struggles of the other members of their divorce group! I have enjoyed all of the books by Mary Kay Andrews this far!

Good Story line!

I really enjoyed listening to this book. I was unsure at first if I would enjoy this book yet, I ended up loving it. Definitely kept me interested and I like the characters.

Light and Fluffy yet keep me Entertained

Light and Fluffy yet keep me Entertained the whole way through. Definitely a good beach read

The Narrator did a great job! I enjoyed the story. I do recommend this book.
