Description

From Olympic skier to llama farmer Now that is a serious jump.

When a close encounter with an eighty-foot spruce steals Merry's dreams of Olympic gold, the former ski champ finds herself falling into a career she never expected -- the life of a travel writer. Picturing glamorous trips to exotic places, Merry is speechless when her boss assigns her to the blog, "Don't Do What I Did," and sends her to, place of all places, a llama ranch. Soon she's eyeball-deep in alpacas, llamas, goats and more. But when Last Chance Llama Ranch starts to grow on her, Merry finds that ranch life, while still just as gross, might be just what she's been missing.

You know what they say... When life gives you llamas...

Reviews

Last Chance Llama Ranch is all kinds of funny. Sophisticated funny, sweet funny, flat-out-belly-laugh funny. Had me grinning from start to finish. Except when it made me want to pump my fist and shout 'Oh, yeah!' for every woman who has ever feared she couldn't do her One Big Thing -- and did it anyway.--Diane Thomas
[A] smart, bawdy, tenderhearted beach read--New Mexico Magazine on Last Chance Llama Ranch
An engrossing story with a unique cast of characters-both human and animal-written in a unique and confident voice. --Kirkus on Last Chance Llama Ranch
Charming characters...interesting and fun.--Library Journal on Bliss
Cupcakes, sex toys, and a hippie lesbian aunt -- this book contains all the elements of my ideal life. Go on a wacky little adventure with Hilary Fields and enjoy the stranger side of Santa Fe.--Sara Benincasa, author of Agroafabulous! on Bliss
I loved every page of this deliciously funny, jaw-droppingly scandalous, full-of-heart novel about life, love, family, food, and very interesting back rooms.--Mia March, author of The Meryl Streep Movie Club and Finding Colin Firth on Bliss
Irresistible...this is a tale for travel buffs, small-town devotees, romantics and cynics alike, and should not be missed.--RT Book Reviews on Last Chance Llama Ranch (Top Pick!)

Author Bio

A scion of Manhattan's Upper East Side, Hilary Fields wrote her first romance novel at sixteen, and continued to write women's fiction even as she studied classics and philosophy at St. John's College, a tiny liberal arts college in Santa Fe, New Mexico. In the spirit of cognitive dissonance, she still divides her time between Manhattan and the Land of Enchantment, and enjoys cooking, crocheting, and her obligatory feline companions.
