Publisher Description
A heartwarming, hilarious novel for anyone who has ever had a family, from the author of Lift and Separate.
After a lifetime of marriage, Marcy Hammer is ready to get herself unhitched - just as everyone else in her life is looking for a commitment. Her new boyfriend, Jon, wants to get serious, and her soon-to-be ex-husband, Harvey, is desperate to get back together. When her headstrong daughter announces a secret engagement to Harvey’s attorney, Marcy finds herself planning her daughter’s wedding as she plans her own divorce.
Now with two huge events on the horizon, the indomitable Marcy soon realizes that there’s nothing like a wedding to bring out the worst in everybody. From petty skirmishes over an ever-growing guest list to awkward confrontations with her sticky-fingered new in-laws, pulling off the wedding is going to be a challenge; seeing her divorce through is going to be a trial. And trying to make everyone happy might prove to be impossible - because in the end, Marcy alone must make a choice between something old and something new.

GREAT SEQUEL!
This follow up to LIFT AND SEPARATE is such an entertaining book! It continues with the life and times of Marcy Hammer. Marcy is separated from her husband Harvey (the Bra King) after over 30 years of marriage and 3 grown children. This book picks up with their middle child Amanda planning a wedding. This should be such a happy time! What could possibly go wrong? Leave it to Marilyn Simon Rothstein to take you an adventure you won’t soon forget! A daughter is planning to begin her marriage as her parents’ marriage is ending. Planning a wedding from another state is tricky anytime and Rothstein will have you laughing at all the outlandish wedding ideas that are mentioned. When all is said and done, it’s a story about families - the love between a mother and her children, sibling love, and doing the right thing for your family. It’s also about tolerating your family - when your people get on your last nerve about both the big things and the little things. It’s about knowing who your true friends are and them being with you no matter where or what. It’s also about new beginnings - a whole new world awaits Marcy and she’s ready to seize the day!
Ugh.
This book is terrible.
