Twelve-year-old BFFs, Ginnie West and Tillie Taylor, are matchmaking geniuses. Together, they maneuvered Ginnie’s widower-dad into proposing to Tillie’s divorcee-mom. Sweet! Certain they are well on their way to sisterhood, each girl is floored when Tillie’s lousy-excuse-for-a-birth-father puts in an appearance after a six-year absence. Too bad “lousy dad repellent” doesn’t come in a can. 

Even though Tillie’s dad has sobered up and is determined to make amends, Tillie would rather he just disappeared again. If he stays, “Operation: Secret Sisters” may need to be renamed “Operation: Not Gonna Happen.”
