Tiny Imperfections

Small Admissions meets The Wedding Date in this juicy novel of mothers, daughters, and second chances, all set against the cutthroat admissions of San Francisco's most prestigious prep school.

All's fair in love and kindergarten admissions.

At thirty-nine, Josie Bordelon's short-lived and fledgling modeling career as the "it" black beauty of the nineties is far behind her. Now director of admissions at Fairchild Country Day School, the most sought-after San Francisco prep school, she's focused on keeping her gorgeous seventeen-year-old daughter, Etta, a senior at Fairchild, from making the same mistakes she once did. And her lack of a love life shows it.

But Etta envisions a different future than the one her mother has planned, and as the countdown to graduation begins, tensions rise at home. To make matters worse, Josie's best friend thinks all she needs is to get back out on the dating field. Unfortunately for Josie, the best eye candy she's seen recently is gorgeous Golden Boy, a gay dad of one of the prospective preschoolers.

As the admissions cycle winds down, Golden Boy turns out to be full of surprises, and Etta's future might have more to do with Josie's past than she could have ever imagined.
