Honest, funny, clever, it sparkles with witty, wry observations on modern life. I loved it’ Marian Keyes

An uplifting story about one mother trying to hold it all together – told with Cathy Kelly’s trademark sparkling warmth, humour and honesty.

Freya Abalone has a big, messy, wonderful family. She has an exciting career as a celebrity chef. She has a new home that makes her feel safe.

But behind the happy front, Freya feels pulled in a hundred directions. Life has thrown Freya some lemons – and she’s learned how to juggle! But she’s keeping a secret from her family, and soon something is going to crashing down…

All families have their struggles and strengths. So can Freya pull everyone – and herself – together when they need it most?

You’ll love Cathy Kelly’s feel-good, relatable stories of family life!
