emilylinman's review against another edition
3.0
I had zero idea that this was book 5 in a series but settled into it really well. It was quite a cute book but there was a lack of romance or much of a big plotline to be honest and it wasn’t the best book I’ve ever written.
The blurb on the back of the book is so misleadingly wrong and the story is nothing like that at all. To start off, Annie does not land her dream job, she goes to New York as a favour to an old friend. She doesn’t take her daughter for mother daughter bonding and rather because she’s concerned her daughter has no career plans in place. Annie is not torn between her husband in London and New York and jumps straight back on a plane to him. The blurb makes it sound so much more agonising and full of drama, which sadly it wasn’t.

I found it a really slow read as it was not really interesting and not my type of book.

This is really heart-warming story! I love Annie's relationship withe her family; Ed (his new husband), Lana (her eldest child and daughter from her first husband), Owen (her younger child and son from her first husband), and her youngest twins Micky & Minie from Ed's.
Selepas tv show beliau terpaksa diberhentikan dan kini dia menganggur tanpa kerja, tambahan kawan baiknya Svetlana meminta bantuannya untuk menyelesaikan masalah Elena yang bangkrut dan ditipu oleh rakan kerja dalam bisnes fesyen di New York. Jadi, Annie bersama Lana jelajah ke New York.
Bermacam2 haluan dan rintangan yang dialami oleh Annie. Elena punya masalah dengan kekasihnya Sye; seorang fotografer. Lana mulai kenal dengan satu jejaka bernama Taylor yang membuat dunia Lana penuh indah, tetapi Taylor telah menghancurkan hati Lana dengan menggunakannya.
Ed di-suspend dari sekolahnya kerana dalam laptopnya ada video lucah. Owen pula ditarik keluar polis dari rumah.

I started this not realising it was part of a series, however this did not spoil my enjoyment of the story. I'll probably add the others to my to read list as once I got into this, I quite liked the characters. It was a nice easy poolside holiday read. I thought it took a while to get going but once it did, it was a nice plot line.
