Kinder sind so ungefähr das letzte, was sich Will Freeman, 36 Jahre alt und überzeugter Single, wünscht. Er lebt bequem von den Tantiemen eines Weihnachtsliedes, das sein Vater 1938 komponiert hat. Eines Tages führt ihn das Schicksal mit dem 12jährigen Marcus zusammen, der gerade ziemliche Probleme hat und unter der Trennung seiner Eltern leidet. Ein humorvoller Roman über Singles, Väter, Mütter und Kinder. At thirty-six, he's as hip as a teenager. He's single, child-free, goes to the right clubs and knows which trainers to wear. He's also found a great way to score with women: attend single parents' groups full of available mothers, all hoping to meet a Nice Guy. Which is how Will meets Marcus, the oldest twelve-year-old on the planet.
