During the fierce competition for the few openings in an elite moms-and-tots club, long-hidden lies are exposed, heartbreaking secrets are revealed, and new friendships blossom in this hilarious take on parenthood and romance.

In ADORABLE YOU...

The Pacific Heights Moms & Tots Club is the most exclusive children's playgroup in all of San Francisco. For the city's ultra-competitive elite, admission into the club is the ultimate parenting prize.

But not everyone is PHM&TC material. The club's founder, Bettina Connaught Cross, adheres to strict membership rules: Moms only. No single parents or working mothers are allowed. Membership is an arduous commitment. And there's no room in the club for scandal, bad behavior, or imperfection... from tots or their moms. But four of the six candidates vying for this year's remaining four slots have a secret that would knock them out of the running.

• Jade is a former stripper and porn actress, who has been absent for most of her son's life.

• Jillian's husband cleaned out their joint accounts and left her for his pregnant assistant.

• Ally never even had a husband -- just a sperm donor -- and she's hiding a high-ranking corporate job.

• And Lorna fears that her son may have special needs... just the excuse her sister-in-law, Bettina, needs to deny her entry to the club.

Can these hopeful moms keep up appearances long enough to outlast the competition? Or will their chances -- and their private lives -- go up in flames?

Friendship. Lies. Seduction. Betrayal. Welcome to the Pacific Heights Moms & Tots Club.

THE REVIEWS ARE ECSTATIC

????? "With affairs, pending divorces, secret jobs, and unsavory pasts, each wannabe member hides something that could blow her chances for good. The women in Pacific Heights might be over-the-top, but in the end, the best interests of their kids are (almost) always at heart. Laugh-out-loud funny and sometimes touching, the Totlandia novellas serve as the perfect quick read for busy moms or anyone looking to escape with some gossipy fun." -- Examiner.com

????? "This book is wonderfully written and has more than just drama. There are touching moments, parts that made me laugh out loud, and as I read the story I felt like I was reading a television show!" Divine Secrets of a Domestic Goddess

????? "Josie Brown writes with her usual storytelling flair. The dialogue is smooth and flowing. The characters are easy to side with or become angry with, depending on each situation. The scenery is easy to visualize. And we mustn't forget all the sex (blush-worthy, at that) and scandal that is a staple of a true Josie Brown novel. It shows that there are mothers who are human and sometimes screw up even with the best intentions at hand. It's like a soap opera for mommies. Guilty pleasure, anyone?" Melissa Amster, ChickLitCentral.com

????? "I love a good mommy sendup as much as the next gal, and this peek into the ridiculousness of the San Francisco upper crust is delightful. Whether or not you've ever had the pleasure (or pain) of joining a playgroup, Brown's tale is as charming as it is cringe-worthy. I laughed, I winced, I kept scrolling." -- Romantic Times
