The Breakdown Lane

by JacquelynMitchard (Author)

Synopsis

Every family has it's problems - Julie Gillis collects them. She's used to telling the readers of her agony column what to do, but somehow she's missed the warning signs at home. A loving mother and a good wife, she is shattered when her husband Leo walks out, leaving her to bring up two teenagers and a small daughter alone. But even tougher times lie ahead - and Julie's going to need all she's got to keep her family together and start again. With her trademark insight, Jacquelyn Mitchard delicately unravels the complications of human emotion within a story that is compelling as it is inspiring.
