In A Pivotal Pause, we find the Ames Cousins right where we left them… heading into a brand-new year with plans for making it the best one yet. Kelly is on a mission to balance her family life and store’s success with her husband’s war injury recovery, while Lindsay is determined to maintain her great relationship with her husband and grow her organization business. As for the younger two cousins, they have big plans. Mia has decided to spend part of her inheritance on an Interior Design degree at Milwaukee Technical College despite the fact that attending means entering into a long-distance relationship with her boyfriend Teague, and Harper is beyond ready to finally start her post-college life as a social media manager for a cruise line. Getting paid to travel the world while she writes of her adventures? That’s a ‘hell yes’ in Harper’s book. All four of the cousins agree that 2020 is off to a great start when a global pandemic knocks the world off its feet and effectively derails all of their plans. Everyone’s smooth sailing suddenly comes to an abrupt halt. Will the Ames girls come together to survive this pivotal pause and get back on track? Or will it all be too much and send them back to bad habits and flawed versions of their ideal realities? In the second installment of the Close Quarters series, author Amanda Zieba helps us to make sense of the craziness in our world today through the lives of the Ames cousins. Filled with witty text conversations readers have come to love, book titles to usher us through trying times and ultimately, hope, A Pivotal Pause is another excellent family drama.

Close Quarters A Pivotal Pause
By Amanda Zieba
Review by 
Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews

First, I want to thank Amanda Zieba for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review. 


Thank you Amanda Zieba for writing such a fun book in Close Quarters a Pivitol Pause. With the crazy world we live in it is great to know that there are books like this one where we can escape reality from. 


One thing that stood out from this book to all the others is it had a storyline about covid. Very few authors are talking about this subject and it is refreshing to see.


Right from the start she had me hooked! I was so right there with the main character how I could relate to how she was so excited to get out of town for a while! I too am not a winter girl so I was also jealous she was going to get a job on a cruise ship. That is such a fun job and in the sun too! 


Amanda had me cracking up laughing from time to time.


I loved the unique names that Amanda used in the story. 


This book is all about friendship and bonding between the girls in the book. 


Close Qaurters A Pitivital is a fun short read that will put a smile on your face.
