In the years that follow, a series of men move through their lives as Eileen ties to find a father for her daughter. Growing up, Cassie wants nothing more than to find the elusive perfect family she has never known - the family she has been taught to believe it is possible for women to obtain if they only "try hard enough. " When her musician-husband runs out of her after the birth of her daughter, Cassie finds herself reliving her mother's life. As the story moves back and forth between time and place, we see how Cassie gradually comes to realize that her father's absence and society's version of family has come between herself and her mother and tainted all the relationships they have had in their lives. ; 206 pages; Signed by Author .
