Publisher's Synopsis
Beth has never stuck at anything. She's quit more jobs and relationships than she can remember. It's not that she hasn't TRIED to grow up; it's just that the only commitment she's held down so far is Friday drinks at the village pub. Then, in the space of a morning, her world changes. An unspeakable tragedy turns her life upside down, and she finds herself guardian to her teenage niece and toddler nephew; catapulted into an unfamiliar world of bedtime stories, parents' evenings and cuddly elephants. Having never been responsible for anyone before, it's not long before she feels seriously out of her depth. What if she's simply not up to the job? With a little help from her best friend Jory, and her lovely next-door neighbour Albert, Beth is determined that this time she won't be GIVING up - but STEPPING up...
