Secrets of a Shoe Addict is the 2nd book in the Shoe Addict series by Beth Harbison.
This one isn’t exactly a sequel to the first book, Shoe Addicts Anonymous, but more like a spin-off. It does feature Sandra once again, who is working as a phone sex operator.
Secrets of a Shoe Addict takes place in Las Vegas. Sandra, her sister Tiffany, and the other women find themselves in serious financial trouble, so Sandra recruits all of them for her phone sex business. Over time, the group of women become close friends and experience crazy life-changing moments together.

I give this book 10 out of 10 stars. It’s endearing, fast-paced, and hilarious, and packed with lots of fun pop-culture references. All of Sandra’s blind-date stories are super funny. She dates a ventriloquist, and even goes to Chuck E. Cheese with someone.
The phone sex stuff is great. Here’s a fun story: Secrets of a Shoe Addict inspired me to start my own phone sex business many years ago, and I actually did that for a little while! I lived in Las Vegas at the time, too, which is also kinda funny.
Granted the business was short-lived and I only got a few phone calls, but the experience was interesting, to say the least. That movie Valentine’s Day (2010) also played a role in inspiring me to start my own phone sex business—that movie came out around the same time and featured Anne Hathaway as a phone sex operator.
All in all, Beth Harbison is great. I wrote about her in this old post about the Best-Ever Chick Lit Authors.
