Publisher's Summary
Karen Anders, high school English teacher and adoptive mother of Tiffany, comes to terms with being a single parent and a clumsy drunk in Houston, TX, as she forges an unlikely friendship with Leona Supak, a WWII, Hungarian refugee who inspires her to change her views on motherhood, drinking, and men.
Karen’s teaching job is a challenge with low-scoring students and no administrative support. Tiffany moves to Austin to attend college but turns to drugs and a gamer boyfriend for stress relief, hiding from Karen through a text-only relationship. Feeling rejected, Karen explores romance for the middle-aged. Despite challenges, a family unit comes together inspired by strangers and disappointments.
