Becoming a family will take patience, humor, a little bit of wine and a whole lot of love After life knocked Delaney Holbrook sideways, she didn’t get down—she got busy. She went back to school, determined to reinvent herself. She even swore off men in suits. But then one particular man in one very fine suit proves too tempting to resist—Malcolm Carlesso, CEO of a family-owned food company. Malcolm’s life has been complicated by the arrival of two half sisters he’s never met…and isn’t sure he wants around. How can Delaney trust a man who keeps his own sisters at such a distance? Alone in the world, Callie Smith never expected to find a family. Suddenly she’s living in a house the size of a small country with her stuffy and aloof new brother and streetwise sister, wondering whether this place—and these people—will ever feel like home. Just as she’s beginning to get settled, a new opportunity presents itself, daring her to dream of more…until her past threatens to take it all away. Friends brought together by chance, Delaney and Callie will soon discover the closest families are bonded by choice—not by blood—in this uplifting story from the consistently unputdownable Susan Mallery. Don’t miss The Sister Effect, an emotional, witty, and heartfelt story of a broken family’s complex emotions and uplifting journey as they strive to become whole by #1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Mallery!

From a #1 New York Times bestseller, “the master of blending emotionally believable characters in realistic situations,” a story about starting over (Library Journal). Carly Spencer is almost forty, and her life hasn’t exactly gone as planned. Weeks away from her big birthday, she finds herself on the brink of divorce—from a husband whose need to “find himself” apparently involves leaving his family and his job so he can sail to Hawaii—and on her way back to her childhood home with her smart-mouthed teenaged daughter, Tiffany, in tow. At least her hometown can offer her the serenity of the ocean. Chatsworth-by-the-Sea, a sprawling B&B on the rugged northern California coast, is where Carly grew up. Now that life has thrown her a massive curveball, she’s decided to help her widowed mother, Rhonda, run the place. But between Tiffany’s teenage angst and Rhonda’s incessant nagging, Carly’s homecoming proves to be anything but peaceful. And when she decides to use the rumors that Chatsworth is haunted to drive new business, she winds up with a real-life ghost hunter as a guest. A stunningly attractive ghost hunter, who seems just as interested in Carly as her haunted house . . . “Mallery is an expert at writing about strong women, their friendships, and their romances.” —Booklist “Susan Mallery never disappoints.” —Debbie Macomber, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of The Best is Yet to Come

She'd resolved to "act more sophisticated" and "get out more." But the rumpled bedding, the coffee brewed by other hands and The Note reminded Rachel Harper that she'd done something completely out of character. She'd brought a man home from a bar. And apparently made a baby. She'd been nervous to tell Carter Brockett the news. Oh, she felt strangely safe with him despite his dangerous looks. Worse, she liked him. But what must he think of the naive schoolteacher who'd lost control and gotten herself knocked up? After all, the man had a legion of exes who'd been unable to snare a commitment, and here she had a forever-binding one! Then she remembered. He'd lost control, too….
