I loved it!”  —Duffy Brown! bestselling author of the Consignment Shop Mysteries "Ann B. Ross develops characters so expertly! through quirks! names! and mannerisms! that they easily feel familiar as the reader is gently immersed into the world Miss Ross has created. . . . A delightful read."  — Winston-Salem Journal "Miss Julia is one of the most delightful characters to come along in years. Ann B. Ross has created what is sure to become a classic Southern comic novel. Hooray for Miss Julia! I could not have liked it more."  —Fannie Flagg! author of  The All-Girl Filling Station's Last Reunion   "Yes! Miss Julia is back! and I! for one! am one happy camper."  —J. A. Jance! author of  Cold Betrayal   Informationen zum Autor Ann B.

Klappentext Imagine Aunt Bee from The Andy Griffith Show with a lot more backbone and confidence," wrote Publishers Weekly about Miss Julia, Ann Ross's endearing Dixie doyenne of decorum. Don't miss her latest, Miss Julia Raises the Roof, coming April 2018 from Viking. In her latest romp, Miss Julia-now Mrs. Sam Murdoch-returns from her whirlwind elopement, only to find herself roped into Hazel Marie's scheme to raise money by throwing a beauty pageant. Though it all seems a tad distasteful, it's nothing compared to the revelation that Pigeon Forge, the marriage mill across the state line that wedded Julia and Sam, might not be legitimate. And a flustered Julia can't help wondering whether she and Sam can keep up appearances before the town finds out they might be living in sin.
