From the author of the best-selling Girls in White Dresses, a gloriously funny new novel of sibling rivalry, thwarted expectations, and that place you return to when things go staggeringly awry - home. Weezy and Will Coffey raised their children, Martha, Claire, and Max, to be kind, smart, and independent. So why, Weezy wonders, is Martha living in her childhood bedroom after a career flame-out? And why has Claire cancelled her wedding and locked herself in her New York apartment? And how has Max managed to get himself into a girlfriend fiasco?

Work Description
The Coffey siblings are having a rough year. Claire has broken up with her fiance and is hiding from her debts. Martha's in a career crisis and even her therapist is losing patience with her. And Max, the baby of the family in his final year of college, is keeping a life-altering secret. Before long, all three of them have moved back home. But things aren't so easy the second time around. Martha and Claire regress to fighting over the shared bathroom while their mother continues to plan Claire's thwarted wedding (unbeknownst to Claire). But it's only a matter of time before Max's secret comes out and changes all of their lives...
