I read Aspenson’s “Unfinished Business” which I enjoyed very much, but I absolutely adored “Unbreakable Bonds”. The characters are so relatable. Angela and her husband (who is quite yummy by the way), are a long-time married couple with two children, one of them a teenage daughter with major drama issues. One of the realities of raising kids is that the choices your children make can often cause disagreements and stress between you and your spouse, but I love how Angela and Jake have this playful relationship that’s supportive, yet real. Aspenson’s dialogue is so true to life, and yet leaves the reader with a smile, reminding us to laugh at life’s craziness. Angela’s mother, Fran, is a total hoot, as well her best friend, Mel. What I most admire about Aspenson’s writing is that while she’s very light-hearted and funny, out of the blue, she'll completely choke you up! Before you know it, you’re getting all misty-eyed. That, my friends, is great writing!
