The Accidental Mother
3 journalers for this copy...
Typical chick lit.
From Amazon:
Sophie Mills adores her shoe collection and her job as a corporate party planner in London. Her career is all-consuming, which is fine because she can never make a decision when it comes to men. Just when she is finally about to accept a lunch date, a social worker informs her that her best friend since grade school, Carrie, has died, naming Sophie guardian of her two daughters, six-year-old Bella and three-year-old Izzy. Reluctantly, Sophie agrees to take care of the children until their father, who left three years ago, can be located. How hard can it be to temporarily take care of two girls? And she did promise Carrie, even though she was drunk at the time. Sophie has a lot to learn about children, and by caring for Bella and Izzy, she discovers what it means to be connected to people rather than focused on her next promotion. British author Coleman creates witty and endearing characters and delivers an exceptional and touching read about loss and love.

Thank you so much, looking forward to reading it. (:
I really enjoyed this book. It was really sweet and for an unpublished copy quite well written.
The characters were really amazing, and a part of me hates Carrie, but idk, she grows on you through the book even though she is dead.
Sophie is a kind heart, and I don't think she figured out who she was until those kids came into her life.
Cal is a hoot, loved him.
Bella is adorable, and strong for a six year old. She was my faveorite character.
Izzy kind of annoyed me at certain parts of the book. But then again she's three. :P
Loved the book. (:
