Stand by Your Man

Beautician-turned-country singer Maggie Reid is getting too famous for her own good. Since her endearing if good-for-nothing former husband, "Satellite Dish and Mobile Home King" Vernell Spivey, vanished along with his millions, everybody seems to be interested in the ex-wife he left in the lurch ... including some very bad people called "The Redneck Mafia". Drop-dead gorgeous Detective Marshall Weathers and his police cronies want to know what Maggie knows as well, since they have a murder on their hands that has Vernell's name all over it.Maggie knows this much: there are many negative appellations you could pin on old liquor-loving, skirt-chasing Vernell, but "Killer" isn't one of them. And though it means courting a mob hit and the extreme attentions of a studly biker p.i., the determined d-i-v-o-r-c-e-e is going to find her missing ex and prove him innocent . . . or d-i-e trying!Bartholomew, Nancy is the author of 'Stand by Your Man', published 2001 under ISBN 9780061014109 and ISBN 0061014109.
