What happens when divorce, love, remarriage, five teenagers, emotional chaos, grocery bills, and complete exhaustion all collide under one roof?
Welcome to the circus.
In Book 1 of "The Circus Series," Sharon Y. Edlin shares the hilarious, exhausting, heartfelt, and often unbelievable beginning of her real-life blended family journey. What started as a second chance at love quickly became an entirely new world filled with stepchildren, nonstop noise, emotional landmines, overflowing grocery carts, and the realization that blending a family is far more complicated than anyone warns you about.
Written with honesty, warmth, and humor, this memoir offers a relatable glimpse into the messy reality of remarriage, motherhood, midlife, and trying to keep your sanity while raising five teenagers under one roof.
Originally inspired by Sharon's popular blog, "The Blog Blender," this series was created to help others feel less alone as they navigate the chaos of blended family life.
If your family life sometimes feels more like a three-ring circus than a Hallmark movie, you're in the right tent.
