Sisters Like Us

by Susan Mallery

First published 2018

Harper Szymanski struggles to keep her life together after divorce leaves her with an unspellable surname, mortgage payments she can barely meet, and a teenage daughter growing distant. She runs a virtual assistant business from home, baking cookies for clients like Lucas, an irritating playboy cop who seems to enjoy getting under her skin. Her sister Stacey faces different challenges. Despite years of medical training, Dr. Stacey Bloom feels completely unprepared for impending motherhood. Six months pregnant and terrified to tell their controlling mother, Stacey worries about breaking the news that her husband plans to stay home with the baby. Both sisters battle to meet their mother's impossible Susie Homemaker standards while navigating modern life's complications. When crises hit, from overwhelming baby stores to awkward encounters at ex-husband weddings, Harper and Stacey discover their bond can weather any storm their demanding mother or chaotic lives throw at them.
