Life, Motherhood & the Pursuit of the Perfect Handbag

"Every working mother has things she dreads, things that keep her up in the night...all forcing her to remind the people she works with that she is not, in fact, wholly devoted to business enterprises, but has another secret life..."Handbag designer Tess Holland is having a horrible day - her friendly little company is being acquired by a multi-national; her medical resident husband wants to go save lives on the other side of the world; and somehow there is baby poop all over her best jacket. Suddenly Tess - once the envy of all her friends with her two cute kids, glamorous job, understanding boss and handsome husband - is struggling to save her career, her marriage, and her flexible schedule.Life, Motherhood & the Pursuit of the Perfect Handbag is a laugh-out-loud funny look at the trials and joys of working parenthood and a great read for anyone (with children or not) who can't quite figure out how to meet expectations at work and in her personal life while keeping space for her own ambitions and dreams.
