LAUNCH PARTY: Trad Wife by Saratoga Schaefer

Join us on February 10, 2026 at 7:00 PM for the unveiling of the exciting new release TRAD WIFE by author Saratoga Schaefer. Joining Saratoga in conversation will be author Rachel Harrison (PLAY NICE).

About TRAD WIFE:

Every #tradwife needs a baby. She’ll get one at any cost.

When Camille Deming isn’t cooking, cleaning, or homesteading in her picture-perfect country farmhouse, she’s posting about her tradwife lifestyle for her online followers. She takes inspiration from other tradwives on social media, aspiring to be like them, but Camille’s missing a key component: a baby. And contrary to what she posts online, things with her husband, Graham, have been strained. Pressured by her eager followers, Camille fears that without a baby, her relationship will suffer and her social media will never grow out of its infancy.

Rosemary’s Baby for the digital age, this disturbing horror novel is one you’ll want to devour in just one bite.
