Thank you Net Galley and Harper Muse for the advanced copy of this audiobook. This book is a raw look at the struggles balancing home and work and the pressure parents put on themselves to get it all done. The occasional wind down wine leading to an addiction and its effects on everyone. The narration by Mia Hutchinson-Shaw was delicate and emotional. Each character had their emotional toll expressed with heartfelt emotion. Triggers for alcoholism but also pregnancy difficulties including still births and miscarriage. I felt it was pretty slow to start but about a quarter of the way in the story developed that I couldn’t put it down. Jessica Guerrieri did a wonderful job with some very challenging topics. Look for this to come out May 12,2025.
