About this listen
In Carmen Rita's savvy, scandalous, and wise new novel, four close friends who've earned the best of everything are forced to decide what they can afford to lose.
Cat, Magda, Gabi, and Luz have helped each other up the ladder with unshakable encouragement - and raw honesty - since forever. But lately, trouble is throwing everything these formidable women thought they knew into doubt.
When outspoken Cat's high-flying television career crashes and burns, she's got to figure out which dream she wants to keep alive the most - her own, or someone else's.
Gorgeous venture capitalist Magda defied her traditional family to make her own way - in her personal life and her career - but an unexpected crisis could finally shatter her chance to resolve the past.
As a therapist, sensitive, supportive Gabi has all the answers. But when her own world falls apart, can she turn her compassion - and her trademark tough love - on herself?
And proud, wealthy Luz thought she knew everything about her upper-class family background - until a revelation she never saw coming threatens to be the one legacy she can't afford.
Now all four women will have to face the truths that make them vulnerable and the failings that give them strength to discover who they really are - and what real happiness means.

Carmen Rita Wong has always craved a sense of belonging: First as a toddler in a warm room full of Black and brown Latina women, like her mother, Lupe, cheering her dancing during her childhood in Harlem. And in Chinatown, where her immigrant father, “Papi” Wong, a hustler, would show her and her older brother off in opulent restaurants decorated in red and gold. Then came the almost exclusively white playgrounds of New Hampshire after her mother married her stepfather, Marty, who seemed to be the ideal of the white American dad.

Venus Johnston has a great job and a long-term, live-in boyfriend who happens to be a drop-dead gorgeous doctor. She also has a weekly beauty-parlor date to keep her long, nappy hair slick and straight. But the tedious hours and harsh chemicals in the salon have long grated on Venus. One frustrating day, she trades in the long hair for a dramatically short, natural cut and sends her commitment-balking boyfriend packing. It's a bold declaration of independence and one that has effects she never could have imagined.

Brett Bohlinger has forgotten all about the list of life goals she’d written as a naïve teenager.

But when her beloved mother, Elizabeth, passes away, Brett’s world is turned upside down. Rather than simply naming her daughter the new CEO of Bohlinger Cosmetics, Elizabeth’s will comes with one big stipulation: Brett must fulfill the list of childhood dreams she made so long ago.
