Meet me at emotional baggage claim Cover Image Book

Meet me at emotional baggage claim / Lisa Scottoline and Francesca Serritella.

Scottoline, Lisa. (Author). Serritella, Francesca Scottoline. (Added Author).

Summary:

Love and tomato sauce are thick in the Scottoline/Serritella household, and Lisa and Francesca s mother-daughter turned best-friends bond will strike a familiar note to many. But now that Lisa is a suburban empty-nester and Francesca is an independent twenty-something in the big city, they have to learn how to stay close while living apart. How does a mother s love translate across state lines and over any semblance of personal boundaries? You ll laugh out loud as they face-off over the proper technique for packing dishes, the importance of bringing a coat in the summertime, and the dos and don ts of dating at any age. Add feisty octogenarian Mother Mary to the mix, and you have a Molotov cocktail of estrogen, opinions, and fun.
