Publisher's Summary:
Everything in Shawna's life is perfect. She gets good grades, dates the right boys, and follows her father's every rule. But Perfect Shawna never expected a phone call from the past. When the voice on the other end of the line explains that her mother is dying, Shawna doesn't know how to react. Her anger over feeling abandoned by her mother ten years ago is tangled up with her grief. And her mother's lesbian partner, Fran, and Fran's two sons only complicate things further.
When her controlling father takes advantage of her mom's outdated will, Shawna begins to suspect that her memories aren't quite accurate, that her mom and Fran may have been hiding something. And if her dad figures it out, there's no turning back. Shawna will have to come to terms with a much less perfect life.
