Of Men and Their Mothers

<p>All men have mothers . . .</p><p>It's a truth that the newly unhyphenated Maisie Grey has learned the hard way. After getting rid of her mama's-boy husband she happily settles down with her teenage son Tommy. But she's still stuck with the hovering presence of her impossible mother-in-law Tommy's grandmother who refuses to exit the family stage gracefully. </p><p>Trying to keep it together with her own business and a new relationship with a man who still lives in--<em>where else but?</em>--his mother's house Maisie struggles to learn from the MIL-from-hell. She vows that when Tommy brings someone home she'll be loving empathetic and supportive. But then along comes completely unsuitable September Silva--with her too-short skirts black nail polish and stay-out-all-night attitude--who is forcing Maisie to take a flinty clear-eyed new look at what it means to be a mother.</p>
