This is the second novel by Cathy Marie Hake I've read and I'm most definitely hooked! Women in difficult relationships is something I can totally relate to!
Sydney Hathwell is trapped in an engagement with a man she doesn't want or love in "Fancy Pants." In desperation, she chooses to portray herself as a man in order to find a safe haven on her uncle's ranch in Texas.
Watching Sydney try to keep up the facade is hilarious, yet also eye-opening. How often do we spend our day to day lives trying to be someone we're not? That was a revelation for me.
Cathy's style is an artist with words, and her books are like movies for the mind. She writes with wit and humor--I was rolling with laughter in "Fancy Pants". I am eager to read the next novel in my stack (thanks, Mom!).

Wonderful review, Victoria! So glad you shared Fancy Pants with us. :)
It sounds like a fun book! I like books and movies where people are in disguise.
I really enjoyed this review - clear and made me want to read it! In fact, I went right to my library web site and put it on hold, lol. Thanks for the recommendation!
Loved the review and would like to read the book. Sounds like a wonderful story.
