"Years ago, while walking through the displays at a convention, my sweet Southern friend and I spied a big name in publishing. Her petite self was dressed adorably in a floral skirt with a matching summer sweater. She looked every bit the professional ... but her feet were donned with flip flops. My friend nearly fell over at the abomination of it all, until I pointed out that the assailing shoes were blinged-out. How like another of my belle friends to note the importance of rhinestones on our footwear--no matter the style--especially as we women journey through this thing called "life." You'll laugh (hard!) at the hilarity of it all, but you'll also ponder the grace we, as women, have been blessed with."--Eva Marie Everson, bestselling Southern fiction author, and author of The One True Love of Alice-Ann
