From the New York Times bestselling author of The Chicken Sisters comes a delightfully entertaining story about a ruse that goes awry and a chaotic homecoming that proves that confronting your past can sometimes set you free.

Sometimes you have to go big to go home.

Rhett Gallagher's adventurous life is imploding. Just as she turns the big 4-0, her long-term relationship collapses and her gran's death draws her back to the family farm. The only silver lining is that Rhett's inspirational book, The Modern Pioneer Girl's Guide to Life-written under a pseudonym-has become a wild success, so much so that when her big publicity moment comes, self-doubting Rhett panics and persuades her best friend, Jasmine, to step into the limelight in her stead.

But their prank turns into something more when the controlling mother Rhett hasn't seen in two decades announces her intent to sell the farm Rhett loves and expected to make her own. To save her inheritance-and her identity-Rhett must concoct a scheme that will protect her home and finally prove to her mother, and to herself, that she can stand on her own two feet.

Reviews for In Her Boots

Heart-warming and complicated and uplifting. I couldn't put it down. Even though I usually prefer books with supernatural goats that eat people. -Jenny Lawson, author of Furiously Happy: A Funny Book About Horrible Things and Broken (In the Best Possible Way) Funny, heartfelt and un-put-downable, In Her Boots is the perfect read and Rhett/Maggie is the exact heroine we all want to be-Strong, vulnerable and totally relatable. Going home shouldn't be this tough or this entertaining. -Susan Mallery, author of The Stepsisters Witty, charming, and utterly unputdownable, In Her Boots is the perfect reminder that living life on our own terms might just be what it's all about. Once again, KJ Dell' Antonia has knocked it out of the park with a story that will work its way right into readers' hearts. -Kristy Woodson Harvey, author of Under the Southern Sky What can be better than a book that surprises and delights you on every page and yet at the same time speaks so clearly to the familiar joys-and challenges-of friendship, family, and self-discovery?...You'll gobble this one up and then push it on your best friend-and she'll love you for it! -Kelly Harms, author of The Seven Day Switch In Her Boots is such a charming, funny, original story that I wished it were a blanket I could wrap myself in. Rhett is a unique heroine, the likes of which I haven't come across in contemporary fiction before, and I felt like I was tagging along with a close friend as I went along on her journey. KJ Dell'Antonia is a fabulous writer and In Her Boots is expertly plotted and full of the perfect little details that make a book sing. -Elyssa Friedland, author of Last Summer at the Golden Hotel Full of quirky twists and heartfelt humor, In Her Boots is a wildly entertaining page turner about forging your own path and finding your way home again. -Virginia Kantra, author of Meg & Jo
