This month's book is: Better Luck Next Time by Julia Claiborne Johnson

It's 1938 and women seeking a quick, no-questions split from their husbands head to the divorce capital of the world: Reno, Nevada. There's one catch: they have to wait six-weeks to become residents. Many of these wealthy, soon-to-be divorcees flock to the Flying Leap, a dude ranch that caters to their every need.

Twenty-four-year-old Ward spent one year at Yale before his family lost everything in the Great Depression; now he's earning an honest living as a ranch hand at the Flying Leap. Admired for his dashing good looks and Cary Grant in cowboy boots; Ward thinks he's got the Flying Leap's clients all figured out. But two new guests are about to upend everything he thinks he knows: Nina, a St Louis heiress and amateur pilot back for her third divorce, and Emily, whose bravest moment in life was leaving her cheating husband back in San Francisco and driving herself to Reno.
