Publisher Description
In this smart and sexy novel from Blackboard best-selling author Yolanda Joe, Bebe Thomas is looking for love. Her first date with Isaac Sizemore seems like the start of something big, until she catches him on the phone with another woman. But this "woman" is actually Isaac's 13-year-old daughter, Dash, who misses her mother and quickly pegs Bebe as the enemy. As Bebe and Isaac struggle to make their relationship work, Joe frequently changes the perspective, allowing each individual a chance to shine. A full cast of talented Recorded Books narrators captures the unique spirit of every character in this exuberant tale.
