He hates kids. Now he's got two of them!
Max Patterson is a bestselling author, wealthy and totally self-sufficient. Or so he likes to think. But when his best friend is killed, and Max becomes the guardian of two children, he is horrified. So are his new charges, fifteen-year-old Caroline and her computer-nerd younger brother Nigel, who are shell-shocked by the loss of their parents, and as unhappy as Max about moving to live with a recluse in a gothic Irish mansion.
How will Max cope with the teenage problems of alcohol, sex and exploding hormones? How will he steer Nigel through adolescence when he has yet to complete his own? Above all, how can he ask Kate, his attractive, articulate Girl Friday, with whom he is rapidly falling in love, to spend the rest of her life with a man whose life has been turned upside down?
