Not-So-Perfect Man

<p>In Valerie Frankel's witty novel a single mother must choose between the perfect man or the imperfect one who seems oh-so-right for her.</p><p><em>The decree has been set. It's time to find Frieda Schast a man....</em></p><p>As far as her family and friends are concerned Frieda has been the grieving widow for long enough. At 35 she's still (relatively) young still (adequately) attractive. Her sex drive is very much alive; even Frieda admits she'd like to put it to use again. Besides she has a son who certainly needs a father figure. With visions of the perfect second husband in mind Frieda's sisters start to send eligible males in her direction.</p><p>Big sister Ilene has found the ultimate unattached catch: a gorgeous independently wealthy successful divorced father pillar of society and paragon of potential. What more could a single mom ask for? Apparently a lot more than loved ones realize. Frieda's own efforts bear very tasty fruit. Sam is young talented devoted and incredibly sexy--though broke only sporadically employed and clueless about kids. But he makes Frieda feel brand-spanking-new in a most wonderfully wanton way. When all is said and done does Frieda really need the perfect man...or the far-from-ideal man who's perfect for her?</p>
