Birdie Lee is an average, divorced mother of two teenagers, until the day she's confronted by a Stain of Unusual Origin. Determined to rid her house of this vile menace, she accidentally loads all the household cleaners she owns into the reservoir of her Swiffer WetJet--and passes out.

When she wakes up, life as she knows it will never be the same again.

Suddenly endowed with super powers, Birdie - aka Super Mom - must learn to use the powers to save her town from an evil villain, while juggling teenagers, a smug ex-husband, a troubled friendship and the possibility of a second chance at love (at the tender age of 40).

Will she manage it? Will she battle the evil villain with one hand and patch up her teenaged daughter's broken heart with the other? And most importantly - will she ever manage to fight crime while wearing high heels?

Warm, witty and full of heart, CONFESSIONS OF SUPER MOM is a triumph for overwhelmed mothers everywhere.

"Like its title character, this debut novel has a secret identity...it's unexpectedly poignant and packs an emotional punch despite the cheery veneer..." - Publishers Weekly
