Description
Gemma's life is in chaos - she's a single parent turning 40, her daughter has drawn a brutally honest picture, and her seven-year-old is at that age where everything is a source of amusement. When her new neighbour suggests she start dating again, Gemma must summon the strength to laugh in her face. But Becky's persistence pays off, and soon Gemma finds herself juggling work, school mums' Facebook groups, and navigating the tricky world of modern dating. As Gemma navigates this new landscape, she must also contend with her growing attraction to her daughter's teacher, Tom. With his life in the City behind him, he's now teaching thirty-six seven-year-olds spelling, grammar, and basic fractions - a far cry from the high-stakes world he left behind. As Gemma learns to let go of some things, she must also confront what it means to be good enough as a parent. Ultimately, this is a story about learning to be okay with not being perfect. With its humorous take on modern life and relationships, "Absolutely Smashing It" is a heartwarming exploration of what it means to be a good parent in the end.
