Description
In Carmen Rita's savvy, scandalous, and wise new novel, four close friends who've earned the best of everything are forced to decide what they can afford to lose…
Cat, Magda, Gabi, and Luz. They've helped each other up the ladder with unshakable encouragement--and raw honesty--since forever. But lately, trouble is throwing everything these formidable women thought they knew into doubt.
When outspoken Cat's high-flying T.V. career crashes and burns, she's got to figure out which dream she wants to keep alive the most--her own, or someone else's.
Gorgeous venture capitalist Magda defied her traditional family to make her own way--in her personal life and her career--but an unexpected crisis could finally shatter her chance to resolve the past.
As a therapist, sensitive, supportive Gabi has all the answers. But when her own world falls apart, can she turn her compassion--and her trademark tough love--on herself?
And proud, wealthy Luz thought she knew everything about her upper-class family background--until a revelation she never saw coming threatens to be the one legacy she can't afford.
Now all four women will have to face the truths that make them vulnerable and the failings that give them strength to discover who they really are--and what real happiness means.
Advance Praise
“Never Too Real is a funny, witty, and beautiful novel of friendships that turn into family and finding strength when your life falls apart. The dynamic between the friends is engaging and refreshing, and readers see themselves a little bit in each one, even though they are all vastly different. Rita’s debut novel leaves readers hoping for more fiction in the future.”– RT Book Reviews, 4 Stars
“TV broadcaster Rita explores the nature of female friendships in this frenetically paced, ribald debut novel…Witty dialogue and genuineness of feeling evoked by the writing overcomes…This deliciously fun read is perfect for fans of Kimberly Lawson Roby or Jennifer Weiner.”– Booklist
“Each protagonist…holds her own as a compelling individual…Fans of workplace chick lit will find a lot to like in this first novel.”– Library Journal
