Pam Wheeler checked every box: Happy marriage? Check. Fantastic kid? Check. Booming career? Check. So when her husband dies in a freak accident and their DIY empire goes on life support, Pam must fix the relationship with her troubled and grief-stricken daughter and save the family business. Pam and Nate were a couple who just couldn't get away from each other, sharing not only their bed, but also a successful lifestyle empire as DIY home renovators, bloggers, podcasters, and co-authors. When Nate dies in a freak accident, Pam becomes a 44-year-old widow, at once too young and too old--too young to be thrust into widowhood and too old to rejoin the dating pool. Now the single mother of a headstrong and grief-stricken teenager, Pam's life becomes a juggling act between dealing with her loss and learning how to parent by herself. On top of all that she also must reinvent herself or lose the empire that she and Nate had built so carefully. It is time for Pam to seize the opportunity to step up as a mother, come out from behind Nate's shadow, and rise as the sole face of the Designer You brand,and maybe, possibly, hopefully, find love again.

Oh for Pete's sake, this is what I've been reading 😂😭 instead of The Plastic Seed. I don't recommend it. Has this happened to anyone else?

Clare-Dragonfly What the heck? How did this happen? Was something packaged wrong? 5y
MommyWantsToReadHerBook @Clare-Dragonfly it's a Kindle book! Right cover, wrong content. Soooo weird! 5y
Clare-Dragonfly That‘s terrible! I hope you reported it to Amazon and they fixed it! 5y
MommyWantsToReadHerBook @Clare-Dragonfly I use my sister's account so we can read each other's books, hope she has emailed them by now! 5y

Book recommendation of the day! DESIGNER YOU by @SLBruck
This is a story of grief, but also of brilliant hope and recreation.

Pickpick

A fabulous debut! I adored this story of grief, moving on, families and second chances. Beautifully written with vivid characters, I felt the pain and challenges experienced by Pam as she is thrust into a life that doesn't resemble the one she had worked so hard to build with her late-husband. Realistic, warm and wise, not to mention, ultimately, rather uplifting, this book is one I'd highly recommend. Sarahlyn Bruck is an author to watch!

Between a pick and a so-so because I spent much of the time wanting to smack the main character. Full review at http://booknaround.blogspot.com/2018/08/review-designer-you-by-sarahlyn-bruck.ht...

After the Holocaust memoir, I need something lighter so this women‘s fiction is it.

Tjackson I am reading Prague Winter by Madeline Albright about WWII. I will need a happy book, too. 6y
