Summary

Honey, these are not your momma's grannies....

When Lillian Summer Fairview's husband up and dies on her, it leaves the last living member of the most prestigious family in Summer Shoals, Georgia, in a hot mess. While Lil was busy being a proper Southern lady, Harlan squandered dang near the whole family fortune on lottery tickets. To keep her financial skeletons in the closet and give him a decent burial, Lil made a deal that has now landed her in prison.

Desperate to keep her troubles a secret and the family estate from falling down while she pays her debt to society, Lil entrusts Summer Haven's care to her best friend, Maggie, who recruits two more over-50 ladies to live at Summer Haven and help keep it afloat.

But when Maggie discovers that Lil's restitution is 10 times the amount she "borrowed" from the federal government, she's convinced Lil has taken the fall for someone else's crime. And these gals will use every trick in their little-old-lady bags to prove it.

Innocent (?) Fun

I couldn't put it down; my family began to dust me; I stayed still for so long!

Entertaining story told in a fab southeren accent

Where does In for a Penny rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is the first proper full length audio book I've listened to and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Abbie-Ruth was my favourite character, she was a ballsy, feisty granny.

What does Pam Dougherty bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

Pam Dougherty's awsome drawling southeren accents really enhanced the storyline, placing me right in the midst of the south.

In For A Penny

Only one word needed. BRILLIANT, the story and the reader.
Especially if you happen to be the same generation as the comical old ladies and I am. ✔️😂🇬🇧👍
