"Brilliant....Stepmothers, stepfathers, stepchildren: all, I think, will find amusement and comfort in its pages."
--Nigella Lawson

"I really, really loved it."

--Marian Keyes

That's the question Samantha Baker poses in The Other Mothers' Club--a fresh, funny, and touching fictional look at stepmotherhood, an often-misrepresented aspect of female life. Join The Other Mothers' Club and enjoy hours of supremely satisfying reading...even if you're not a stepmother.

Front Jacket

Eve has had it--she's no wicked stepmonster in the making. She absolutely adores Ian, the new man in her life, and she's more than willing to open her heart to his kids. But nothing she does is right in their eyes, and she just can't take it anymore.

At her wit's end, she decides it's time for stepmothers to stick together, so, with a little prodding from her best friend, Clare, she decides to join a support system for other women in the same boat. There's stay-at-home mom Mandy, high-achiever Mel, and even young and in love Chloe. And as cups of coffee give way to wine, and their get-togethers become a regular fixture, the women share their love, lives, ambitions, and true feelings about their new families.
