It's 1947 and a well-respected family is living in peace. The son is supposed to inherit the house, as traditions go, but he doesn't want to. He wants to pass it onto his younger and blood-related sister, but she's already looking at houses with her fiancé. Their younger sister is not related to them by blood, she's a foster child, and a woman, meaning they would have to break traditions to let her inherit the house. This family has always been the one to follow traditions: girls learn to cook and clean, boys go to university, women stay at home making dinner and cleaning the house, men go out to work and earn money for the house. How can they break traditions now?
Thank you to @_bugzy_ for creating the book cover! I was using an old one before that didn't really work that well and this person has created a much better one!

Settling Slowly
2015 rolled in with a bang, and it did not have the grace to gift me with a social life that everyone in a one hundred year radius would be jealous of or that is even just the talk of the town. Instead I got myself into a complicated relationship which wasn't much talked about, a relationship that I didn't get into is talked about all the time and university is around the figurative corner. That is where you can factor in people I suppose I should call 'fans', the fascination that comes in with cutlery, pots, pans and other formerly boring things. But let us not forget that my parents are finally getting married and Mum can't shop for lace without me wanting to kill her, add in a dose of sleepless nights, invigorating kisses - which have nothing to do with the sleepless nights and a lot to do with nightmares - Harriet not knowing the meaning of the words "you're done" and Ice Ice Baby is still a thing. We're all growing up (except Dad who will still make inappropriate jokes at every inappropriate moment, some to do with what cannot be done when you're wearing a plaster cast) and holidays are being planned though some are less holiday and more a mad dash to find somewhere to live out in the big wide world without our parents. Life might be moving on, but I still go to McDonald's late at night with my friends. Some things at least don't change. Sequel to: Falling Fast CompleteComplete
