Claires mum has been keeping secrets and now shes left Claires dad and dragged her to live in a run-down old shack in the country. Did anyone ask Claire if that was what she wanted! Not only does Claire have to leave her dad, her friends and her perfectly good life in the city, but now she has to deal with her mothers new boyfriend, Mac. Claire is pretty sure that this enormous life-as-we-know-it change is absolutely NOT a good thing. But with her mum in love with Mac and her new job, it looks like its up to Claire to bring her real family back together. A warm-hearted story about changing families and embracing new beginnings.
