Summary: Amy is a 30-year-old woman who spent many years polishing an unapproachable outer shell and maintaining a long list of reasons why not to have children. She keeps a canoe on her front porch, a mountain bike in her kitchen and a balance in her checking account.

Mark is an older, divorced man with four kids. He sleeps on an Army cot and eats out of pots and pans given to him by his therapist. He has a Ph.D. in stream ecology, a VW Rabbit with 285,000 miles on it and enough fishing tackle to sink a small boat.

Amy falls for Mark hook, line and hundreds of dollars in sinkers.

This is Amy’s humorous and compelling story of becoming a stepmother. The book has catchy chapter titles like “Can’t We Just Duct Tape Them Together and Send Them Outside?” And it contains over 70 tips including “Tip #44: You can’t exchange a bad child for a good head of lettuce.” This book is a must read for stepmothers and future stepmothers, and a fun romance that might just make you giggle somewhere along the way.
