About this listen

 THE NEW MILLY JOHNSON NOVEL, THE HAPPIEST EVER AFTER, IS OUT NOW!

Shay Bastable is the woman in the middle. She is there for everyone else, holding them all together, looking out for them all. She is part of the sandwich generation – caring for her parents and her children – and she loves it that way.

But Shay is so busy supporting everyone else, she hasn’t thought for a moment about herself. And when her family start to find their own ways in the world, she is finally able to look forward to some breathing space. But when her whole world collapses, who is left to her support her…?©2021 Milly Johnson (P)2021 Simon & Schuster, UK Contemporary Contemporary Romance Family Life Fiction Genre Fiction Romance Feel-Good Heartfelt

Milly Johnson is such a brilliant author and I love listening to Colleen Prendergast narrating.

This book has so much in it that it covered most subjects. Milly did a good thing by shining a light on men being the victims of domestic abuse although it was a tiny bit of the Story It was so worth telling.

Weddings, marriage, separation, affairs, noisy neighbour disputes, first loves, old school days, old loves and new loves, family members ill, friendships, moving house, new business, lottery win, grown up kids, jealousy, paternity tests etc. It was also quite funny .

For me personally, it was so lovely to hear my 👼 Angel baby's name again 'Shaye' she really is the brightest star in the sky 🌟

This is another good story from Milly Johnson. An easy, heart-warming story to lose yourself in if it's cold and miserable outside. I just felt that the main character's new relationship could have been left to run a bit further.
A great narration by Coleen Prendergast.
