About this ebook
'Heart warming and heart breaking - you will need tissues!' Hello!
A spellbinding young love story of hopes, dreams and sacrifice, for anyone who loved The Fault in Our Stars or Me Before You.
If it doesn't break your heart, it isn't love . . .
For Maddy, life is all about routine. It has to be, to keep her autistic sister happy and healthy. With just Maddy and her mother as Bee's full-time carers, there's no time in Maddy's life for complications like friends, let alone a boyfriend. So when Maddy meets Albert, the last thing on her mind is falling in love.
Albert has resigned himself to always being a disappointment to his strict father. But then he meets Maddy, and gets a glimpse of what being part of a functioning family can be like - and the tremendous sacrifices people will make for the ones they love.
But are Maddy and Albert willing to make the biggest of sacrifices for each other? Some things, they are about to discover, are outside of their control . . .
Differently Normal is a love story with the biggest of hearts. It shows us that anyone can find love, and anyone has the capacity to love, even when the odds are stacked against them.

I'm in a similar situation to Maddy and I hope and pray to God that I have a love with someone like her and Al-bear! Reading this book gives me hope that there really are understanding men like Albert in this world.Never cried so much with a book before. I feel blessed to have read this book. Thank you Tammy
