You, Me and Him
‘How can you love your child yet fear to have another who might be just like him?’
Josie and Finn seem to lead a charmed life, with successful careers, an enviable relationship and an adorable son. But parenthood is no easy ride when your adorable son is hyperactive…
When Josie unexpectedly finds herself pregnant again, her feelings are mixed. How can you love your child yet fear to have another who might be just like him? Finn thinks she’s over-reacting – so she turns to her best friend, Clarky. He’s always been there for her – even if Finn suspects ulterior motives.
As she and Clarky become ever closer, Josie’s world is suddenly thrown into doubt. What if she and Finn aren’t the perfect couple after all? Is there such a thing as a straightforward friendship between a man and a woman? But most importantly: is she prepared to risk everything to find out?
You, Me and Him is a warm and courageous novel about what it means to be a wife and mother of a son with ADHD – even one as loveable as George. But above all, it is a funny and moving tale of marriage, friendship, love and jealousy.
Reviews
‘I just love it when you discover a new author and they are fab
- Alice Peterson is one of those gem finds. She has only written
one other novel called Look the World in the Eye and I have
loved them both. You, Me and Him has everything - romance,
friendship, heartache and laughter.’
Rachel Simm, Waterstone’s
‘The mother of a hyperactive child fears the birth of her next.
Sensitive and highly enjoyable.’
