Motherhood at forty-five—what could possibly go wrong?

Shaleni May never planned for motherhood—until a chance encounter, a rescue dog and an unexpected adoption at forty-five. Suddenly thrown into digital-age parenting, she battles self-doubt, meddling mums and a lurking threat from her husband’s past. Wry, warm and wildly relatable, The Unlikely Motherhood of Shaleni May is a story of late-life surprises, resilience and redefining family on your own terms.
