Short Synopsis
In Hahn's sensitive and witty story, Talley learns that she will always love her flighty mother, even though they may never be able to live together.

Full Synopsis
"Out of sight, out of mind." That's what Tallahassee Higgins's mother, Liz, always says about her ex-boyfriends. But now that Tallahassee has been sent to live with her aunt and uncle in Maryland so Liz can start a movie career in California, the words are taking on new meaning.

Aunt Thelma says that Liz is gone for good, but Talley is sure her mother will come for her. So who cares if mean Aunt Thelma hates her, if she's failing sixth grade, or if the kids at school think she's a liar? It’s not like she's staying in Maryland forever.

Unless Aunt Thelma is right, and Liz isn't coming back.
