Author Biography: Ame Mahler Beanland

Book Synopsis

From the irreverent moped-riding Hell's Belles to Ya-Yas sporting majorette boots and swilling "Knock You Naked" margaritas, here are real-life stories of fierce female bonding. Escapades range from those of the rich and famous (Fergie and Diana's night on the town during Andrew's bachelor party; Sharon Stone's literally giving Mimi Craven the shirt off her back) to those of the less celebrated (the Cirque du Chien, party-lovers who dress like poodles and drink French champagne; La Bella Mafia, a gang dedicated to diva-dom, righting wrongs, and overdressing). Chickcentric lists include "Chicks Who Rock," "Chick Reads," "Chick Flicks," and "Chick Cliques." "Wonderful - a must read for all women of substance!" - Jill Conner Browne, author of The Sweet Potato Queens' Book of Love
