But underneath the shiny surface of this perfect existence, fault lines are beginning to appear . . . In a matter of months, Russ finds himself without a job or a wife, caring for his young daughter while struggling to adapt to a new reality. Throwing himself into the wilderness of single parenting, Russ embarks on a journey at once terrifying and rewarding—one that will test his abilities and his emotional resources beyond anything he's ever imagined. When a chance encounter with an old flame tempts him to take a chance on love again, he navigates this new opportunity with trepidation and wonder. With the loyal support of his parents, the wisdom of his older sister, Marge, and the hard-won lessons of fatherhood, Russ will finally come to understand the true nature of unconditional love—that it is a treasure to be bestowed, not earned.
