Sally Parker had a morbid fear of big social events and it was for this reason that she was crouching down low in the shoe section of her wardrobe...

Sally Parker is struggling to find the hero inside herself.
All she wants to do is lie down.
Her husband Frank has lost his business, their home and their savings, in one fell swoop. Their bank cards are being declined. The children have gone feral. And now the bailiffs are at the door.
What does an ordinary woman do when the bottom falls out?
Sally Parker is about to surprise everybody.
Most of all herself.

A big-hearted story of a family on the brink, The Best Things is a life-affirming tale of failing, falling and finding a way back up.

Great performance

Nice story, elevated by the performance. Could Mel have included a feisty Welsh granny just so that she could show off her knack with the accent? Her voices for all the main characters are excellent and make the book worth a listen.

Terrific from start to finish!!!

What a delight! I love Mel & Sue & saw Mel had this audio book so I bought it, I’m SO glad I did! It has been hilariously entertaining & very heartwarming. Mel has many gifts, not only as a colorful writer but also as a voice actor! Her characters were vivid, identifiable and simply brilliant! I wish this book would go on for many more hours!
Mel, please continue spinning this wonderful yarn of the engaging Parker family- i desperately want to know what happens next 😃
Thank you❣️❣️❣️
