It's a day like any other for Deuce Winters, a stay-at-home dad in sleepy Rose Petal, Texas, where he and his three-year-old daughter Carly are making their weekly trip to the grocery store. But the discovery of a dead body in his mini-van quickly throws his quiet life into disarray. In a town where gossip spreads faster than a brush fire in July, it doesn't help that the victim ruined Deuce's high school football career and married his ex-girlfriend. . .

As the number one suspect in the court of public opinion, Deuce is determined to clear his name, with a little help from his wife Julianne, a high-powered attorney who lovingly refers to him as her "househusband." His search for the killer leads him to a business plan gone awry and a gaggle of jilted lovers. All the while, he'll have to contend with a diminutive but feisty detective, the ruthless preschool PTA, and more than his fair share of Texas-sized hairdos--not to mention the laundry. . .

First in a New Series!

Theres not enough stars to recommend this book! As 1st in a new series it was just totally terrific! The characters were human, believable, some eccentric, some not likeable the whole story was written with a sense of humor, love and plotted extremely well. This ex-teacher/coach deciding to stay home and be a house husband to care for his little girl is just adorable and such a lovely different from all the amateur stay at home Moms! His wife being a lawyer they decided this was the best way to care for their little girl. I chuckled, smiled and could feel the joy of the family as the story developed!
