The Hope Family Calendar

Tom Hope is broken. Since his wife Laura died he hasn't been the same man, and definitely not the same father. Fortunately for Tom, his mother-in-law Linda has been there to pick up the slack and look after the girls. After Tom gets drunk and almost misses a family trip on the first anniversary of Laura's death, Linda decides that enough is enough. In a last bid attempt to force Tom to reconnect with his daughters she takes drastic action and leaves for Australia... surely a man without a crutch is one who has to learn how to walk? But an over-eager PTA mum, teenage daughters and a taken love-interest might just slow his new walk into a crawl... THE HOPE FAMILY CALENDAR is a heartbreaking, funny and charming novel about grief, family and forgiveness and how easy it is to lose yourself in loss.
