With this book, families can learn how to bond, improve their communication, find common ground, and become a real family unit. This won’t happen overnight, but the author offers actionable advice that can help stepparents feel more connected to their stepchildren—and vice versa. I truly think this book can help “blended” families come together!

This book has been a revelation! It digs deep into the unique challenges of step parenting with compassion and practical advice that truly works.
