From New York Times best-selling author Kristan Higgins, a new novel examining a family at the breaking point in all its messy, difficult, wonderful complexity.

The Frosts are a typical American family. Barb and John, married almost 50 years, are testy and bored with each other...who could blame them after all this time? At least they have their daughters - Barb's favorite, the perfect, brilliant Juliet; and John's darling, the free-spirited Sadie. The girls themselves couldn't be more different, but at least they got along, more or less. It was fine. It was enough.

Until the day John had a stroke, and their house of cards came tumbling down.

Now Sadie has to put her career as a teacher and struggling artist in New York on hold to come back and care for her beloved dad - and face the love of her life, whose heart she broke, and who broke hers. Now Juliet has to wonder if people will notice that despite her perfect career as a successful architect, her perfect marriage to a charming Brit, and her two perfect daughters, she's spending an increasing amount of time in the closet having panic attacks.

And now Barb and John will finally have to face what's been going on in their marriage all along.

From the author of Good Luck with That and Life and Other Inconveniences comes a new novel of heartbreaking truths and hilarious honesty about what family really means.

Story Line

Well done, another easy listen to by Kristen. I'm a huge fan or her books and the repeat performers.

Great book!

Characters were multilayered, story kept me interested and great narration. Now I want to visit the town that sounds like home.

So relatable!

It’s really a feel good story. Very relatable and beautifully written. Characters were portrayed so amazingly! I love this book!

Loved

I loved this book. Loved the characters and the story as a whole. Kristan is now one of my favorites.

Talented Narrators!! Funny and heartwarming story!! Love it!

The readers were such talented actors who really brought their characters to life!! My favorites were “Barb” and “Sadie” The story was also wonderfully engaging and I found myself laughing aloud several times in each chapter. IMO One of the few audiobooks that is better heard than read on paper!! (I am doing both simultaneously)
