Blending families can be tricky, but what’s a few more branches on the family tree?
Things are finally looking up for Anna. Seventeen miserable years of marriage to man-child Connor have left her drained and ready for a new start. So, when they separate, she couldn't be more thrilled to move in with James, a handsome lecturer who is everything her ex-husband is not: kind, thoughtful, and above all, reliable.
But Anna and James's kids hate living with the loved-up couple and the new set-up. Their teenage daughters - one a studious high achiever and the other a cool rich girl unbothered by grades or exams - have nothing in common. And Anna's wild football-mad nine-year-old son declares war on bookish James.
With exes, new partners-of-exes and money all in the mix, home life is fast becoming a minefield and their new-found happiness hangs in the balance.
Nobody said step-parenting was easy; Anna and James are about to find out exactly how complicated it can be.
Warm and uplifting, Yours, Mine Ours is the perfect read for fans of Marian Keyes, Jojo Moyes, and Cecelia Ahern.
