I received a copy of this book in return for my honest review.
Being part of a blended family is hard, when I started dating my husband I won’t lie…I was frightened at the thought of possibly becoming a stepmother. At the time I had very little experience with children and I was overall really overwhelmed. I came across this book and honestly, it really helped open my eyes and ease some of the anxiety I had.
This book was written by two women who are stepmothers and it is loaded with helpful insight and advice for stepmothers from stepmothers. It also offers guidance from pastors and counselors on certain issues you might run into such as expectations, realistic goals, organization, finances, relationships with stepchildren, negotiation, forgiveness, healing the past, building a strong marriage, dealing with in-laws and ex-spouses, depression, stress and more.
I honestly think this is a book EVERY stepmother should read! It really opened my eyes and gave me a bit of reassurance when it came to the relationship I have with my stepdaughter.
You can purchase this book on Amazon at a super affordable price!
I’ve been a step-mother for fifteen years now. This book would have come in handy at the time. Blended families are hard, hard, hard. By the grace of God, things got better over the years.
I’m glad there’s a book like this to address the role of step-mothers.
