Odd Girl Roar - The Good Life, #4 - E-book - ePub

When I called the mayor a "cockwomble", it didn't go down well. Jewel Bauer has always been the underdog in whatever situation she lands in, and unfortunately her 'act now, think later' approach to life - or, as she puts it, "being the biggest numpty this side of planet Spackbrain" - doesn't help her chances of beating the odds. Moving to a small town to kick start her life, she finally finds a place, a family to belong to.
The group of fellow oddballs who welcome her into their fold, seem to understand her - the tall, broad-shouldered, quiet one a little more so than the rest. When a failed politician with questionable ethics and an even more questionable agenda seeks to establish power in her new community, Jewel knows she must stop him, even if the only political experience she has is insulting mayors. What's the logical solution? Mount an opposing political campaign with her small family of social misfits, of course.
Jewel and her friends quickly find themselves out of their depth fighting a political veteran who knows all the tricks to win voters over, and the resulting comedy of errors threatens to break the group apart. But Jewel's not afraid of casting a stone at the giant - or several - to see which will fell him. The question is: How devious and dangerous a stone does she need? And will it ruin her first shot at love?Odd Girl Roar is the final of four stand-alone novels in the award-winning Good Life series.
