She's getting back in the game, one blog post at a time.

Samantha Higgins never thought driving her husband's car would forever change her life. But one conversation later, heard through his Bluetooth, and Samantha is changing her last name. While trying to figure out who Samantha Decker is, she writes what she thinks is the final post on her blog, announcing her divorce. When the post goes viral, she finds herself with a new title, The Sidelined Wife, and an unbelievable following.

To make matters more interesting, her younger brother's best friend, Reed Cassidy, who was a thorn in Samantha's adolescent side, moves back to town as the new head football coach for her son's high school team. Unbeknownst to Samantha, Reed has harbored a crush for his old babysitter all these years. But, Samantha isn't keen on dating anyone, much less a younger man that used to booby trap her bedroom with firecrackers.

While Samantha is doing her best to learn and even make up some of the rules of single life and being a semi-celebrity, Reed comes in and changes the game. Now Samantha must decide if she should get back on the field or if she prefers the sidelines.

With a smart, funny main character, and a sweet, charming, swoony, and entertaining lead man, this book is one to re-read. Showing the emotional toll of divorce on a family, with hope for recovery and never too deep in the dark side, The Sidelined Wife is more than a light romance. My 11-year-Old son listened to some of it with me and he was laughing out loud at some parts. He stopped listening before the marvelous kissing parts.

This book is wise at its core, adding to the complex emotional depth so well described.

The narrator emphasized some phrases differently than I would have, but overall her subtle performance was enjoyable.

Clean, with kissing and frank discussion of marital relations. For that reason I’d not recommend this book to a teenager.

Delightful
