Review

'I did enjoy this book and by the time I was half-way through it I really couldn't put it down. It's a thoughtful look at how the big events in life threaten to drown us, but it's those little things which cause all the problems. The characters are people you can warm to...It is definitely recommended' (WWW.THEBOOKBAG.CO.UK )

'A captivating novel of love, deception and misunderstanding.' (WOMAN & HOME )

'Three friends - Dan, his wife Sally, and her best friend, Chloe - struggle to come to terms with the devastating effects on them of the Boxing Day Tsunami...How the three battle to cope with heartache and major decisions is tenderly and thoughtfully told in this touching tale' (GOOD BOOK GUIDE )

'Erica James is a clever writer who quickly gets the reader enthralled by her characters and so involved in their lives that you will find it hard not to keep those pages turning...f you are going on holiday you must pack this in your suitcase' (WELSH COUNTRY MAGAZINE )

Product Description

Dan and Sally Oliver and their friend Chloe Hennessey are lucky to be alive. Three years on, after surviving one of the world's biggest natural disasters - the Boxing Day tsunami - their lives have changed dramatically. Dan and Sally are now parents. Dan is enjoying being a stay-at-home father taking care of their young son, and Sally is the bread winner and loves her job as a partner in a Manchester law firm. The arrangement has so far worked well, but when Dan starts to question whether Sally has got her priorities right, the cracks in their marriage begin to appear. Dan and Sally have everything Chloe wishes for in life - a happy marriage and a beautiful child. Dumped by her long term boyfriend just weeks after the tsunami, she's been on a mission ever since to find the perfect father for the child she craves. When she meets Seth Hawthorne, she thinks she may have hit the jackpot. But is Seth the man she thinks he is? A life can change in a heartbeat but IT'S THE LITTLE THINGS is not simply about the moments when everything changes, but also a moving, compelling and inspiring story of how we lead our lives in the days and years that follow.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good Read, 4 Mar 2009
By Kat Everett "Mrs E" (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
The new Erica James book introduces us to Dan and Sally and Chloe and her ex Paul. After surviving the Tsunami, their lives are altered and they go back home to start afresh. Chloe splits up with Paul and is finding her job as GP in her village is not enough until she meets Seth Hawthorne, who she thinks can give her everyhting she wants. Sally and Dan have their son Marcus to consider and with Dan working from home and Sally being the breadwinner it doesnt take long for things to start going awry. Their lives become complicated and before long everything that can go wrong does go wrong. As usual it is written really well and makes for an enjoyable and realistic read. Erica James rarely dissapoints and although this book was good I felt the ending was too hurried.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great, Easy Read, 21 Mar 2009
By Andrea Mars (Leicestershire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Again another enjoyable Erica James novel. A book that could be written as though it is part of your own life story given the goings on...

I couldn't put the book down and found it a good story. It didn't quite reach 5 stars for me as there was too much predictability with the outcomes and it was rushed in some places.

Still, if you want a good summer read - then you wouldn't go wrong with this.
