About this ebook
Dive into this heart-wrenching young adult/adult novel that delves deep into the lives of five children struggling to rise above the hardships of their single-parent upbringing. Making Waves Against All the Odds follows their journey from primary school, where they form a self-preservation group, through the turbulent years into adulthood. At the centre of the story is Stuart, who, burdened with the responsibilities of being the man of the house from a very young age, grapples with his own challenges, including failed romances, while also managing his younger sister’s troubles. When tragedy strikes, Stuart faces an agonizing decision: become the legal guardian of a daughter from their close-knit group or marry the girl of his dreams. The emotional twists and turns of Stuart’s journey will keep you captivated until the very end.
