Deconstructing Superwoman

I’d like to introduce you to Holland Barrett. She’s a 38-year-old wife, mother, executive, book lover, and pop-culture fanatic. Today, she walked in on her husband of 20 years eating her famous seven-layer dip—off of his naked secretary! It was a crushing blow, even for a “Superwoman.”

So what’s a girl to do? Well, if you’re anything like our main character, you might swear off Mexican food, reinvent yourself with the help of some good friends, and take another stab at happily ever after. If that fails, you might try multiple murders, mayhem, and masturbation.

Throw in a hired assassin, a sexy FBI agent, the Mob, a psychotic intern, and a younger man who just may be your “Ultimate Mate” (if you can just get past the 10-year age difference), and you’ll be enjoying one of the wildest road trips ever.

Join Holland and her two best friends—Emily, a romantically-challenged bookstore owner and Lola, a plus-sized super model—as they dismantle the Superwoman myth and come to understand that it’s the bumps in the road that make the journey so much fun.
