Dallas's life was turned upside down the day her mum was killed in a traffic accident. Now she lives with her brothers, step-sister and her mum's partner Gemma in a too-small house filled with bickering and grief.

Slightly idealised ending aside, this is a warm-hearted, funny & poignant family/friendship drama with lively, likeable characters. Touches on some serious themes but keeps the tone light. A delightfully quirky & enjoyable read.
