Summary
When Rosie and her mother form a new family with Rosie's best friend and her father, Rosie finds that it takes a lot of work to make a family in a world of changing relationships.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Rosie and Phoebe have been best friends since they met on the Divorce Express, shuttling between their parents on weekends. So when Rosie's mom falls in love with Phoebe's dad, and they all move in together, it seems perfect. But Rosie soon learns that having Phoebe as a sister and having Phoebe as a friend are two very different things. And having an extra parent around isn't easy either. Rosie always thought that she and Phoebe would make great sisters. But can their friendship survive being in the same house?
