Go Team Sean! This was an enjoyable short read, just 81 pages, or 2hrs 15mins of listening time, well narrated by Pamela Ferguson. It can be hard to get totally invested in a novella, given the short time we have to get to know the characters, but this was well paced and involved me from the start.
Carly Day is a terrible mother. She has had several children with several husbands and didn't stay around to raise any of them. Now she has decided to attempt to build bridges, but it's not going to be easy. Her daughter has a three month old baby, Sean, and needs help for a month while her husband goes away from home on a training course and she recovers from severe back pain. When Carly arrives, the only help is being given by Pete, an uncle, who's definitely in over his head.
'Team Sean', must all pull together to get through the month before the husband returns and they can relax.
