When Oliver Watson's wife leaves their family and returns to school, Oliver must be mother and father to his three children. The upheaval continues when Oliver's mother dies and his father remarries shortly thereafter, and Oliver's 17-year-old son moves out of their house and in with his girlfriend and baby. Through the changes, none of the Watson men will be the same, and each will learn anew what it means to be a daddy.

Publisher's Note
Oliver Watsons world suddenly dissolves around him when Sarah his wife of eighteen years, returns to Harvard to get her masters degree. Oliver is left on his own, with three children and a freedom he never wanted and doesnt completely understand. His familys needs and demands suddenly consume his life. When Olivers mother is diagnosed as having Alzheimers disease and dies soon thereafter, Olivers fathers life is changed as well. Braver than his son with less of a future before him, George Watson, at seventy-two, quickly embraces new relationships and, eventually, a new life. The sudden changes come as a shock to both father and son. Ben, Olivers oldest son, rejects his father and reaches outward, under the illusion that he is grown-up and can make it on his own. Melissa, the middle child, blames Oliver for her mother's desertion. And Sam, the "baby," is too shaken to deal with it at all. Now the only parent, Daddy must somehow cope this, his troubled family and explore a world of new responsibilities, new women, and new experiences. Each of the three men must start a new life: Oliver in New York and then in Los Angeles with his children; once he faces the biggest change in his life; his widowed father with the woman next door; and seventeen-year-old Ben with his girlfriend and baby. Nothing is as it was before... nothing is as they once thought it would be. But in the end, different is better... different is more... for each of them -- and especially for "Daddy". Steel once again displays her extraordinary talent for exploring universal human emotions. She probes the hearts, minds, and lives of three men and three generations.

"Captivating...A great story, a real page-turner, full of insight and compassion and characters that will tug at your heart as they struggle with the changes in their lives....Steel is at the top of her best-selling form." Moskowitz
