"If Sassy Hummel were indeed as 'sassy' as her name, perhaps she would have been better prepared to cope with the abrupt downward turn her life had taken. Dumped for a younger, skinnier trophy wife by husband Frederick after twenty-seven years of devoted marital servitude, she has been forced to accept the only job marriage prepared her for: that of a menial in the gloriously upscale Sylvan Tower Hotel."--Jacket.
