A daughter witnesses her mother grow angels' wings. A mistress begins writing letters to her lover's wife. Thanks to a genealogy test, a middle-aged woman meets a sister she's never known, and they're very...different.


The 14 insightful, witty, and often laugh-out-loud stories in My Mother's Boyfriends are populated by angels, earthquakes, sibling complexity, love affairs gone bad, and children left to figure it out on their own. Woven throughout is an abiding sympathy for the mess-ups, bad choices, and missteps humans make despite their best intentions.


"Witty and utterly enchanting." -Vendela Vida, author of We Run the Tides


"My Mother's Boyfriends will both break your heart and make you smile. A dazzling set of short stories that touch on the most human of experiences; growing up, raising children, watching ailing parents, and aging. Each story is a gem full of warmth, insight and a touch of humor."

-Courtney Flynn, Trident Booksellers and Cafe


"In My Mother's Boyfriends, Samantha Schoech writes with precision, grace, and considerable wit on subjects ranging from the magical to the mundane. Packed with sharply observed characters and surprising sentences that masterfully turn a story inside out, this collection is as unsettling as The Big One, but so much more fun. These are voices you'll hear in your head long after you've closed the book. A terrific read with a big San Francisco heart." -Michelle Richmond, bestselling author of The Marriage Pact and The Wonder Test
