Praise for Michelle Collins Anderson: "From the Missouri hills to the flashy resort town of Hot Springs (where even Al Capone enjoys the nightlife), the fierce protagonists of The Moonshine Women find their own places in this turbulent world but never break the bonds of love and respect that tie them together. This is a rip-roaring family saga that proves a man can't hold a candle to a woman when it comes to protecting--and avenging--the ones you love. " --Melanie Benjamin , New York Times bestselling author of The Children's Blizzard "A feminine odyssey of legendary proportions, The Moonshine Women absolutely brims with hope, heat, and heart. Tender and gripping, this story is juicy all the way down to the last drop." --Amy Jo Burns , author of Shiner "This captivating story of family secrets, vengeance, run-ins with the law, and even gangsters such as Al Capone, are impeccably crafted. The descriptive prose will have you breathing in the Ozark mountain air as the determined Strong sisters do whatever it takes to keep their family together, and they'll leave you thinking about them long after closing the book." --Loretta Ellsworth , author of The French Winemaker's Daughter on The Moonshine Women "A must-purchase for Ozarks-region libraries. Recommended for readers who enjoy novels about strong women characters and rural survival.
