Family Rules (Novel)

Family Rules is a upcoming novel written by Maryam Wells. The novel tells the story of three different but related families face trials and tribulations in North Valley, California.
== Synopsis ==
Family Rules revolves around three different types of families (nuclear, blended, and same-sex) living in the Los Angeles area, called Blue Bay Harbor who are interrelated through three sisters; Allison, Leslie, and Paige.
Oldest sister, Allison is married to architect Peter Sulivan and the two have three children, Matt, Jenny, and Danny Allison is more of a housewife than her sisters.
Middle sister, Leslie has married divorced father, Shane Murphy and is a stepmother to his two daughters: Julie, a stereotypically ditzy teenaged girl; Claire, an intelligent and sensible. Haley's off again, on again boyfriend Dylan is a permanent fixture in the show, with the two eventually marrying at the end of the tenth season.
Youngest sister Paige and her partner Marissa Drexell have one adopted son, Sam Drexell-Keeler, named after their father. At the series finale, they adopt another child, a baby girl named Gloria, named after their mother.
As the name suggests, this family represents a modern-day family, and episodes are comically based on situations that many families encounter in real life.
