This is one of those books you just want to hug!
Mimi, oh Mimi, she is so endearing, with a big heart. Maybe a bit naive, but always giving so much of herself to everyone.
Mimi is engaged to Ren, a divorced father with girls, but when his ex-wife has an accident and needs care, Ren moves back into their former home.
Meanwhile, Mimi, who lost her job because of Ren, moves into an apartment hoping to be closer to Ren, who seems to be doing his best to keep Mimi separate from his family.
The building Mimi now lives in also houses a co-op daycare, and Mimi canโt help but get herself involved and intertwined in the lives of kids and their parents, especially one single dad named Jamie and his little girl, Alice.
As much as Mimi gets walked over and poorly treatedโcoming in second to the ex-wife and a dead wifeโshe was always so generous and kind. She took the high road, even helping those many would consider the competition, which paid off because kindness does win. I loved all the different characters, from the pre-schoolers to Renโs ex-wife to Jamie and Mimi; they were written so well.
Youโll find moments of silliness, tenderness, and even heartbreak, but it all points to joy, and that joy is what you choose to make itโand finding love when you least expect it.
