Maxine Simmons is trying to climb the ladder of high society in Palm Springs. However, she didn't count on her husband's affair and request for a divorce. When she is banned from Palm Springs to AZ, she finds new friends, and ultimately a family, in a local bartender and a young boy and his baby sister. The antics of Maxine and this group of unlikely friends is at times laugh out loud funny, and other times, sweet and endearing.

The year is 1969. Maxine Hortence Simmons is a wealthy, Palm Spring socialite, seeking to climb the next step on the social ladder. A divorce throws her completely off the ladder, and she wants back in. Thus begins her quest for the Mrs. American Pie contest. Parts of this book are funny, and parts are just slow. The book ends as you might expect - or at least how I expect from the very beginning.
