"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. But then, 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 expects to make her own. To save her inheritance and identity, Rhett must concoct a scheme to protect her home and prove to her mother and herself that she can stand on her own two feet."

Review:
"In Her Boots" by KJ Dell'Antonia
My Assessment:
'In Her Boots' was quite an enjoyable read, primarily after things were worked out with the main character[Rhett], her mother's relationship[Margaret], a romance that had once been one[Mike], and an excellent best friend that anyone would want to in there lives [Jasmine]. What will happen when Rhett's mother decides to see the farm that belonged to her grandma Bee?
So, to add the story together, we have a good storyline with 'love, struggle, regret, relationships, friendship, with some comedy, and perseverance' with some interesting lovable characters from this thought-provoking read. The enjoyment was the story's setting being on a country/farm. 'In Her Boots' is a good read that would be recommended to pick up to see how it all comes out in the end.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with a copy in exchange for an honest review.
