A NEW MAN ON THE SCENE.
Aspiring comedian Abi has always been told that she’s too much, but never felt like enough. Until she meets Will, who changes everything she’s been made to believe by men, the media and her mum. He loves her just the way she is.
HIS KIDS.
But Will is a package deal and comes with two daughters from a previous relationship. Suddenly Abi finds herself thrown into the spotlight, and not just on the stage…
CAN SHE WIN OVER THIS TOUGH CROWD?
Abi is used to playing to difficult audiences, but step-parenting, and winning over the girls, is going to be her toughest challenge yet. Can she finally prove her critics wrong and triumph at her biggest gig to date?
A fun and feel-good romantic comedy about love, friendship and family for anyone who’s struggled to feel like enough and find their place. Fans of Beth O’Leary and Ruth Jones will love this warm and witty page-turner.
My thoughts: this was very funny and I was highly entertained. I remember seeing Andi on TV and she’s really hilarious so of course the book is. I loved Abi, she’s a great character. Larger than life, but not so lucky in love, she’s just trying to get her comedy career going up a level, and meet the man of her dreams, like any woman.
Will might just be that man, one problem – he’s got two daughters and the teenage one doesn’t seem very keen on Abi at all.
Cue a silent war, attempts at friendship rebuffed, struggling with whether to say anything to her boyfriend, and getting super frustrated. Plus Abi’s mum is a nightmare, her sister is keeping secrets and she’s fallen out with her friends. Plenty of drama to go round.
Thankfully Abi realises she needs to put on her big girl pants and dig herself out of this rut, get her act (literally) together and be the grown up. But the journey is lots of fun to read!
