Learn moreA hilarious saga of fishing, family, and three generations of tough, independent women—the first in a trilogy
Having fled the testosterone-soaked world of professional sport fishing, thirty-something RayAnne Dahl is navigating a new job as a consultant for the first all-women talk show about fishing on public television (or, as one viewer's husband puts it, "Oprah in a boat"). After the host bails, RayAnne lands in front of the camera and out of her depth at the helm of the show. Is she up for the challenge? Meanwhile, her family proves as high-maintenance as her fixer-upper house and her clingy rescue dog. Her dad, star of the one-season Big Rick's Bass Bonanza, is on his sixth wife and falling off the wagon and into RayAnne's career path; her mother, a new-age aging coach for the menopausal rich, provides endless unwanted advice; and her beloved grandmother Dot—whose advice RayAnne needs—is far away and far from well.
But as RayAnne says, "I'm a woman, I fish. Deal with it." And just when things seem to be coming together—the show is an unlikely hit; she receives the admiration of a handsome sponsor (out of bounds as he is, but definitely in the wings); ungainly house and dog are finally in hand—RayAnne's world suddenly threatens to capsize, and she's faced with a gut-wrenching situation and a heartbreaking decision.

In Kimberly M. Wetherell's storied thirty-year career in the arts, she has been an actor, an opera and film director/producer, a published essayist, the founder and host of several NYC reading series, and, on a brief hiatus from "the biz," a professional boozy baker and restaurateur. Her bright, youthful sound, coupled with her wide-ranging and varied life experiences, brings nuance and depth to her audiobook narration.
