WRESTLING WITH ALLIGATORS

Three generations of women, living in a boarding house in the 1950’s, struggle with life and love, but when Claire, a widowed French war bride, finds herself pregnant by a man she does not love, it is teenage Maddy who takes charge and proves there is more than one way to make a family.
