A delicious tale of revenge and renovation, Hissy Fit tells of a wronged spitfire who’s determined to see that the no-good lowdown, lying, cheating ex-fiancé who ruined her life and her business gets the comeuppance he deserves . . . even as she struggles to revitalize a broken-down mansion for a hunky, if slightly odd, local businessman.

And now she’s throwing a Hissy Fit, in the best possible sense.
