A SMILE IN EVERY SEASON

Since "having a front-seat passenger" is the ultimate goal, the search for Mr. and Ms. Right is paramount in Paul Z. Alber's A SMILE IN EVERY SEASON. Work becomes the backdrop as Trinidadian characters date, split, rate each other, and gossip while continuing their journeys. Best positioned to succeed? Sisters Angie and Ettie, who, through frequent flashbacks and snappy dialogue, convincingly show readers what it's like to gradually realize what you need for love.
