Nicely wrapped story about being human

Characters are fun and story line interesting. I enjoyed watching everyone grow and learn to accept each other, flaws and all.

I love this author! The two books I have read by her have been delightful romances with quirky, loveable characters. This one is focused on family and parenting.  The plot covers marriage, divorce, and the struggle to balance work and family. It has the air of Mary Poppins meets Moonstruck meets It's a Wonderful Life. I easily would re-read it again when I need a good laugh with smart, charming characters.
