More Description
A story of murder, adultery, and regular church attendance,
The Bad Behavior of Belle Cantrell introduces Belle Cantrell,
a beautiful young widow with a rebellious streak, years before
she will become grandmother to Sissy LeBlanc, the feisty
main character of Loraine Despres's bestselling
The Scandalous Summer of Sissy LeBlanc
The year is 1920, Prohibition is in full swing, women are clamoring for the vote, and life isn't easy for Belle, not in a little town like Gentry, Louisiana, especially after she's sent to jail for swimming in an indecent bathing costume with a group of suffragists.
Sexy, sassy, with laugh-out-loud humor and a cast of witty characters you won't forget, The Bad Behavior of Belle Cantrell is a love story and a page-turner. But on a deeper level, it is the tale of a woman struggling to find her moral center and stand up to the forces of intolerance that are determined to destroy the soul of a town and the people she loves.
