But Doug has more urgent things on his mind, such as his sixteen-year-old stepson, Russ, a once-sweet kid who is now getting into increasingly serious trouble. As Doug starts dipping his toes into the shark-infested waters of the second-time-around dating scene, it isn't long before his new life is spinning hopelessly out of control, cutting a harrowing and often humorous swath of sexual missteps and escalating chaos across a suburban landscape.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJonathan Tropper\u003c\/b\u003e is the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestselling author of numerous novels, including\u003ci\u003e Everything Changes\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e This Is Where I Leave You\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eOne Last Thing Before I Go\u003c\/i\u003e.
