Stepping Up by Sarah Turner
4.0
Women’s fiction with a big strong heart
I was immediately drawn into this family pulling together in times of crisis after young parents are injured and killed in a road traffic accident leaving the previously happily going free single sister looking after a teenager abs a toddler with the help and sometimes hindrance of their grandparents
Luckily for most of us parenthood develops slowly as we learn as the child grows what we need to do to keep them warm fed clean healthy and happy .How traumatic it must be if this is suddenly thrust upon us by fate .
I loved the story of how Beth the younger sister puts on her big girl pants and takes over the care of the 2 children and their very differing needs
I loved the on off relationship she has with her old school friend and was urging them to get together very soon into the book
The addition of an elderly male neighbour adds an extra input to the story I rather liked him and his joy when a parcel delivery man takes a picture of his slippers
I don’t usually read what I suppose would be classified as chick lit but this book had me grabbed ,I blubbed giggled and was sad when I’d finished
I’d like another novel to see what happens to the family as I’m now invested in their outcome
