{"product_id":"the-unpolished-life-of-eleanor-whitfield","title":"The Unpolished Life of Eleanor Whitfield","description":"Eleanor Whitfield teaches people which fork to use for a living. So naturally, she just inherited a honky-tonk bar.\nEleanor's etiquette studio in Atlanta is dying — six students, a stack of unpaid bills, and a legacy from her perfectionist mother that she can't afford to keep and can't bear to let go. Then a small-town lawyer calls with news that changes everything: her estranged great-aunt Mavis has left Eleanor her entire estate.\nThe catch? It's a bar called The Rusty Spur in a Blue Ridge Mountain town of 1,847 people. It has a disco ball, a mechanical bull, and peanut shells on the floor. And Eleanor has to live there for six months or lose it all.\nShe shows up in a pencil skirt and her mother's pearls. They serve her Chardonnay from a box. In a mason jar.\nThe staff includes a poetry-reading bouncer the size of a barn door, a waitress who's been there thirty years, and a bartender who performs on Friday nights in a vintage Dolly Parton t-shirt. And then there's Wyatt Rivers — the blue-eyed, broad-shouldered bar manager who loved Mavis like family and isn't sure Eleanor deserves any of this.\nHe might be right. She doesn't know how to pull a draft beer, she's never line danced, and she once corrected a customer's handshake technique in the middle of a Saturday night shift. But Mavis left her a letter that said something Eleanor can't stop thinking about: \"A place to be graceless and still be loved.\"\nWhen a developer comes after the bar with a multimillion-dollar offer, Eleanor has to decide what matters more — the safe, polished life she was raised to want, or the messy, loud, completely real one she's only just beginning to build.
