nThe grass is always greener on your sister's side of the fence. nDivorce left Harper Szymanski with a name no one can spell, a house she can't afford and a teenage daughter who's pulling away. n nSpending half her life in school hasn't prepared Dr. Stacey Bloom for her most daunting challenge--motherhood. She didn't inherit the nurturing gene like Harper and is in deep denial that a baby is coming.

Worse, her mother will be horrified to learn that Stacey's husband plans to be a stay-at-home dad. assuming Stacey can first find the courage to tell Mom she's already six months pregnant. n nSeparately they may be a mess, but together Harper and Stacey can survive anything--their indomitable mother, overwhelming maternity stores and ex's weddings. Sisters Like Us is a delightful look at sisters, mothers and daughters in today's fast-paced world, told with Susan Mallery's trademark warmth and humor. n.
