It's almost Christmas. But for Ali, the season of good cheer is the anniversary of her baby's death. As she stands at her son's grave, she is poignantly aware of how dramatically her life has changed. Determined to stand on her own two feet and get through Christmas alone, Ali turns down her ex-husband's unexpected invitation to spend the holiday with him and his father, only to give in to her best friend's cajoling to share the festive season with her. The only trouble is, it means having to be nice to Sarah's awful husband, Trevor.

Sarah may be a saint for putting up with Trevor, but Ali is no such thing, and as his cranky behaviour escalates, she takes it upon herself, in an extraordinary act of daring impetuosity, to play God with her friend's incomprehensible marriage. But Ali's meddling has consequences even she could not have foreseen...

I felt I must finish the book but it seemed never ending , predictable and monotonous. A thin story line with typical happy ending .
I was happy that it had finally finished !

at times I felt it was a bit long winded and I got a bit fed up listening sometimes my mind wondered off to other thing may be it was the narrators voice

easy listening

...possibly more than any of her others, but that could be because both story and reader suited each other so well. Obviously written some years ago, before mobile phones, it showed its age in ways that still didn't matter a bit. it was the relationships between the strongly drawn characters that did, despite Trevor and some of the more bizarre actions of some of the others,

I loved this...
