Starred Review Over the last 16 books, Michaels’ popular group of female vigilantes has evolved from a makeshift group bent on revenge to a highly efficient organization of incredibly powerful women married to equally successful (and supportive) men. If these women want something to happen, it happens. Now one of their own is being considered for the U.S. Supreme Court, and the ladies don’t want anything from the past, including their own sometimes violent activities, to be examined during the vetting process, let alone destroy their friend’s chances of being appointed. Political intrigue, high-level high jinks, and characters with charisma to spare make this book a real crowd-pleaser. Michaels’ long-running series dramatizing the clout of true friendship will also appeal to readers who enjoy other gal-pal stories, such as Dolores Stewart Riccio’s Circle of Five (2003) and Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez’s Dirty Girls Social Club (2003). Fans of Michaels’ series will be glad to know that despite its title, Game Over, it really isn’t. --Shelley Mosley

Product Description

With yet another successful assignment behind them, the ladies of the Sisterhood have enjoyed a relaxing break together and celebrated the wedding of Myra and Charles on Big Pine Mountain. But as soon as the newlyweds return from their shortened honeymoon, they are hit with some exciting yet unsettling news. It seems their dear ally Lizzie Fox, recently ensconced as Chief White House Counsel, is rumoured to be near the top of the short list for a soon to be vacated seat on the Supreme Court. While the Sisters are thrilled for Lizzie, they are concerned about her being ripped to shreds in the approval process, partly due to her connections with the Sisterhood. It will take a masterful plan, and loyal friends aiding them at every turn, for the Sisters to succeed in protecting Lizzie while securing their own freedom at last.
