Charlie is young widower with 5-yo son who rules the roost. Zadie is Charlie's twin sister who takes care of son while Charlie works 14-hr days. Charlie gets fired for making truthful but damaging speech at office party. Geez, how trite.
I tried to enjoy the glib foolishness but when Charlie meets up with a random hottie who he made out with nine years prior at a party, and they both remember, I just had to quit. This isn't a novel, it's juvenile writing. No thanks!
