My Life as a Philly Girl, (Paperback)

<p>She came to Philadelphia with forty-seven dollars, a duffel bag full of Chanel, and absolutely no plan.</p><p></p><p>Jo Maddox had everything - until her father's wife pulled the plug on her Beverly Hills lifestyle and put her on a one-way bus to South Jersey with nothing but designer luggage and three lip glosses. Standing outside a Pennsauken transit center in rhinestone heels, she is officially out of moves.</p><p></p><p>Alicia Johnson is having her own worst Tuesday. Fresh off catching her boyfriend of three years in her good bedsheets with a woman named Candy, she is driving through Pennsauken trying to remember who she is outside of a relationship that should have ended sooner. The last thing she needs is to adopt a stranded socialite. She stops anyway.</p><p></p><p>What follows is equal parts disaster and magic. A diner dash gone wrong. A scheme involving dating profiles, designer clothes, and a man named Bradford who chose a seafood restaurant despite a severe shellfish allergy. A punch bowl deployed with surgical precision at exactly the right moment. An Atlantic City craps table that changes everything. And somewhere between the mozzarella crawl, the boom box incident, and a truth told in a hospital corridor, two women who had nothing in common become the most important people in each other's lives.</p><p></p><p><em>My Life as a Philly Girl</em> is a love letter to female friendship, second chances, and the city that holds space for both. For readers who believe that the best things in life arrive unannounced - usually at a bus station, usually wearing the wrong shoes.</p><p></p><p><strong>Friendship. Heartbreak. Hoagies. Bad decisions.</strong></p>
