The Appalachian Entrepreneur: Part 2 Four Husbands and a Bottle of Trouble
Author: Robin Alden Howard
Genre: Biographies & Memoirs, Women's Fiction
Synopsis
A reckless moonshiner, a county on the brink, and a woman who’s had enough.
Clyde Turner is a man with big dreams and even bigger problems—a self-proclaimed entrepreneur whose business ventures range from questionable to downright illegal. From moonshine runs to backwoods deals, Clyde thrives on chaos, dragging everyone around him—including his wife—into his mess.
Rachel never expected happily ever after, but she also never expected to be dodging lawmen, fending off criminals, or getting caught in the middle of an Appalachian power struggle. As Clyde’s reckless schemes spiral out of control, Rachel is left trying to survive the consequences of his ambition.
But the county is changing.
Boyd Cassidy, the lawman who’s spent years cleaning up Clyde’s disasters, is done looking the other way. The old sheriff’s days are numbered, and with the law shifting and danger closing in, Clyde is running out of allies.
As Rachel watches Clyde’s empire crumble, she realizes it’s not just his future at stake—it’s hers. And if she doesn’t act soon, she’ll go down with him.
A gripping, darkly humorous Appalachian memoir packed with moonshine, lawmen, and a woman’s fight to escape the chaos before it’s too late.
