Hot Flashes & Cold Lemonade
of Susan Flett Swiderski (Goodreads Author)
Description
Living the perfect life has always been easy peasy for Pearl Bryzinski, because sheâs practically a pro at ignoring the negative and putting a positive spin on the facts, but itâs impossible for her to find anything positive about Daddy skipping town with that blue-haired floozy in a flashy brown Pinto. No matter how hard she tries, she canât ignore the fact that heâs gone⊠or the fact that sheâs becoming a drama queen who can sweat like a sumo wrestler doing push-ups in a sauna. Itâs almost enough to suck the blush out of her rose-colored glasses. Whether she likes it or not, sheâs gonna have to turn some of her wishbone into backbone.Layer by layer, assumptions and misconceptions peel away, as Pearl learns to buck up in the face of reality, and to laugh at her imperfect⊠but not so bad⊠life. Supported by a down-to-earth husband who loves her with every blue-collar bone in his body, a mother who isnât the self-centered witch Pearl imagined her to be, three terrific grown kids⊠okay, make that two terrific kids, and a Golden Boy whoâs a far cry from 24-carat⊠and a bunch of wonderful wacky gal pals, Pearl comes to realize that her mixed bag of family and friends makes her life damned near perfect. Pearl being Pearl, sheâll never give up her rosy specs entirely, but learning to handle reality also means learning to deal with death.
