If you like reading about relationships, this one is for you.' Pandora Sykes 'An exploration of the complex tapestry that is family life, full of delights and difficulties' Cosmopolitan Readers are loving this: 'I adored this book. So wonderfully written I really did connect with every single character. I laughed and cried, so rare for me, but I feel a part of the Sorenson family now' 'It is so rich and deftly written ... A real delight!' 'I couldn't put this book down' 'This story was fabulous to read, sometimes I had to deliberately slow down so that it lasted just a little bit longer'
