A troupe of swimsuit models on a war bond tour take on the Florida mafia.

St. Petersburg, Florida, 1944. Thelma Miles can't stomach injustice. Broke and orphaned near the close of WWII, the 18-year-old joins a troupe of touring swimsuit models hoping for a fresh start, only to discover she's stepped into the mafia's lair.

Kathleen Young, desperate to save her business and ailing husband, organizes the tour. But her single-minded focus blinds her to the dangers lurking beneath the surface.

L.L. Kirchner's twisty debut novel Florida Girls weaves a rich tapestry of:

  • Real-life characters and meticulous historical detail
  • Resilient women fighting to reclaim their place in post-war America
  • A gripping blend of glamor, crime, and unexpected alliances
  • NYT-bestselling author Jane Heller raves: "Florida Girls is a rollicking debut novel brimming with colorful characters, twists and turns and, at its heart, women who overcome different backgrounds to form an unbreakable bond."
