Woohoo!
Our book is #1 in TWO different categories on Amazon: divorce and stepparenting!
This is so exciting we can barely stand it! The status is updated hourly, but it's been up there awhile now….
A special shout-out to all of Carol's readers who helped propel the book to the top of the charts (that's her with baby Jacob above). Over 700 of you came from her site alone today, based on her request to help us find someone for The Washington Post interview. That's love and devotion for you, but her art is totally worth it!
Our good friend Izzy Rose is up there in the Top Five too, with her book The Whole Package: My (not-so) Glamorous Transition from Single Gal to Instant Mom!
Thanks for your support!

Hi Jennifer,
I recently received a copy of your book from your publicist at GPP. I read most of it during an extend lunch hour (more like two hours) and wrote my review on my blog http://www.thestepmomstoolbox.com
I am tapped into one of the best support groups for step moms (www.smoms.org) founded by Cathryn Bond-Doyle. I’m the resident advice giver, especially when it comes to the mom/step mom relationship.
My husband’s ex-wife and I get along. We have from the start. It doesn’t mean it’s been easy. I acquired 4 step children when my husband and I said “I DO” (he acquired 2). My youngest step son, 17, lives with me and my husband full time.
This is getting to be a longer comment than intended…please, take a look at the review I wrote because I’m telling everyone in a mom/step mom relationship to buy your book.

Wow, Peggy, your comment made my day!! Thank you so much for the awesome review and I’m glad you found the book helpful. You were very honest in what you wrote on your site and I think you’ll provide a lot of people with some interesting food for thought!
I’d love to profile your site. Will be in touch!
Best,
Jen
