“Behind Every Good Man is the political rom-com we need! A smart and funny novel that blends female empowerment, humor, motherhood and brilliant political strategizing.

Propulsive plot and nuanced characters are clearly Confino’s trademarks.” —Jo Piazza, bestselling author of The Sicilian Inheritance

“Author Sara Goodman Confino has established herself as a major voice in humorous historical women’s fiction. Her work has all the charm of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel—and twice the wit. But with Behind Every Good Man, Confino takes her craft to new heights. Though rife with her signature humor, the novel has a serious undertone that illustrates how few rights women had in the early 1960s. Behind Every Good Man is a rollicking fun political novel that exemplifies the best of the genre. Not to be missed!” —Aimie K. Runyan, bestselling author of The School for German Brides and The Memory of Lavender and Sage

Told in an upbeat, lighthearted, and thoroughly engaging prose, this story will hook you from page one. Confino writes with humor and insight as she shows Beverly navigating unexpected circumstances and figuring out how to outsmart one obstacle after another. Behind Every Good Man is just the kind of feel-good read we all need right now. Another triumph from Confino that you most assuredly will not want to miss!” —Jacqueline Friedland, USA Today bestselling author of He Gets That from Me

“Confino has done it again! Though we take a step back in time, we step right into Bev's life and what it means to be an empowered woman…no matter where you're from, what your circumstances are, or how idiotic your husband is. The message? Women always prevail. With sharply written prose that makes you laugh, cry, and root for our heroine, Confino has created a charming, empowering masterpiece. A read for everyone.” —Rea Frey, #1 Amazon bestselling author of Don't Forget Me and The Other Year

“If Midge Maisel gave up comedy for politics, she’d be Beverly Diamond in Behind Every Good Man. Sara Goodman Confino’s fourth book is another winner: smart, sharp, funny, and feminist. What a fun ride!” —Meredith Schorr, author of Someone Just Like You

“Behind every good book…is well, a terrific writer. Sara Goodman Confino does it again with her latest, Behind Every Good Man. It’s got all the inside Washington DC goodies…political hubby caught with his pants down and his scorned wife (our fabulous protagonist) is not going to take the betrayal lightly. Instead, she is going to beat the cheater at his own game, with some tricks of her own. Beverly Diamond goes for the gold—a woman ahead of her time, she takes on her husband and Capitol Hill with her own savvy political maneuvers, and in the process lands the winning punch. Confino’s page-turner is full of laughs, feminine mystique, endearing characters, Jewish-isms, and lotsa heart.” —Lisa Barr, New York Times bestselling author of Woman on Fire

“The votes and been counted and the results are in…when it comes to writing novels with the perfect blend of humor, romance, and strong female characters you root so hard for you get goosebumps, Sara Goodman Confino is the clear winner. Behind Every Good Man, her latest gem, is a lighthearted, feel-good story with a healthy serving of romance and a powerful message of female empowerment. Bev is an irresistible, Midge Maisel-like heroine who perfectly captures the hopeful spirit of America in the early 1960s, when the burgeoning Civil and Women’s rights movements began to give a voice to the unheard. Bev’s transformation from perfect housewife into deft political strategist, all while balancing motherhood, a collapsing marriage and lots of family drama, is a master class in how to be a strong, confident, loveable, and vulnerably human woman. With a quick wit, a page-turning plot, and broad and likable cast of characters, this is one of those books that you’ll read in one sitting and then wish you could pick up and start again immediately. Spend a few delightful hours with Bev, and you’ll be sure to never underestimate a woman again.” —Samantha Greene Woodruff, bestselling author of The Lobotomist’s Wife
