“If you couldn’t put down The First Wives Club, add Pen Pals to your reading list…Olivia Goldsmith’s latest twist on love and revenge…left us smiling.”—Good Housekeeping
This was not supposed to happen. Wall Street wiz Jennifer Spencer took the rap for her powerful boss on insider trading charges—barely questioning his assurances that she’d never actually be convicted. Now she’s exchanged her Armani suit for an orange jumpsuit, and she’s settling in at the Jennings Correctional Facility for Women. And her well-connected lawyer, who also happens to be her fiancé, has taken her three-carat diamond ring back—for “safekeeping.”
Things look grim. But after a rocky start, Jennifer finds herself making friends with Movita, who works in the warden’s office, and getting to know her fellow inmates Suki, Cher, and Theresa. Then Movita discovers that as gloomy and run-down as Jennings may be, it might soon get worse—because a profit-minded private company is angling behind the scenes to take it over. If there’s anyone who knows about bad deals, it’s Jennifer Spencer. And with Movita’s street smarts, Jennifer’s Wall Street smarts, and Cher’s talent for larceny, they’re about to make the investment of a lifetime….
