In this episode 175, Guest Host Danielle Stewart, a best-selling author and previous guest on the show, interviews Susannah Marren, author of “A Palm Beach Scandal,” a book that follows two sisters as one offers the ultimate selfless act to the other, in this novel of artifice and intrigue.
Mary Simses, author of “The Irresistible Blueberry Bakeshop & Café” and Palm Beach resident calls the book “a wickedly fun and entertaining story about high society life in one of America’s toniest towns.” And Elyssa Friedland, author of “The Intermission” calls the book “a riveting tale filled with betrayal, passion, aspiration and deep emotion set in fascinating and alluring Palm Beach.” She says “A Palm Beach Wife doesn’t pull any punches. I couldn’t put it down.”
In this story, Aubrey, a free spirit, isn’t interested in marriage or children, yet when her sister asks her to carry her child, she can’t say no, despite her mother’s warnings. And then one stupefying secret, meant to be buried forever, is unearthed and no one in the Cutler clan is able to turn back. As the family is shaken to their core, Aubrey and Elodie must realize their places in the world and the lives they want to lead.
