Book Synopsis:
Max West is a

fifth year without her mother approaches, Phoebe finds solace in her godmother,
Amy Riley, and her daughter, Grace Crawford, another single parent family.
Amy Riley is
a successful fashion designer who spends most of her days raising her
four-year-old daughter, Grace, while her wayward boyfriend is travelling the
world making the next best film. As the fifth year without her best friend
looms she finds comfort in her ex-boyfriend, Max, and his daughter,
Phoebe.These two “broken” families have a tough week to face as the dreaded day
approaches.
However
through their past, present and debatable future will their choices affect the
outcome both parents clearly want and are simply denying? Or will Phoebe and
Grace lose the only “whole” family they have ever known?
My review:
Familiar
Ties by Naya Nikki
A
sentimental journey about second chances and the importance of family and
friends.
My
favorite line: “Little moments like these when the two broken families became
one…”
Amy
Riley has a beautiful daughter, a husband that’s always away following his
dreams, and a devoted best friend that needs her more than he knows.
Max
West is a widower raising his daughter, who happens to be best friends with his
ex-girlfriend, Amy Riley. He’s struggling to come to terms with the death of
his wife, and how to explain it to his daughter.
Told
in flashbacks and alternating point of views, Familiar Ties is a sweet romance
that deals with big issues: Explaining death to kids, following your dreams
verses family responsibilities, tense custody battles, and how an
unconventional family can pull together in tough times. Past, present, and
future converge in a nicely woven tapestry of special, life-changing moments in
each character’s life. This dreamy, melancholy journey will make you laugh, cry,
and jump for joy.
