Book Description
Becoming a dad is the greatest - and, yet, the most difficult - privilege for any man. Dads don't have the same network of support that mums generally have; they're often back to work, exhausted, after only two weeks of paternity leave; and the world of nappies, bottles and late-night feeds can leave them feeling bewildered. In between teatime, bathtime and bedtime, clearing up sick, many sleepless nights and unexpected outbursts (from both the kids and the adults), Sam Jackson brings the highs and lows of fatherhood to life with hilarious stories and insightful reflections on his own very extensive - and very hectic - experience as a dad of three. This down-to-earth book is full of useful tips on family life with children up to school age, and will appeal to all fathers looking for a humorous and intelligent take on what it means to be a modern dad.

I wish it were that simple. Nope. I'm talking about the "falling in love with one of my client's daughters," kind of trouble . . . The kind of problem I can't talk my way out of when the truth gets out.How I ended up with her phone is a long story-and when she called to get it back, I took things a bit too far. One innocent exchange wound up leading to so much more.Fun, new, and totally immune to my charm, Sutton is different. And I had no idea she was the daughter of Foster Green.
