Non-Fiction Memoir
Book Description Novelist/screenwriter Trey Ellis delivers a funny, sexy, poignant memoir of his adventures when suddenly thrust back into the dating scene as a newly single father. How is a single dad supposed to navigate a new girlfriend into and out of his California king without his son or daughter noticing? For Trey Ellis, steering his way through the unfamiliar nuances of the contemporary dating scene is sometimes a nerve-racking exercise in intra-familial spycraft. But the rewards of being a dad, as any parent knows, easily outweigh any hardships. In a world where African-American fathers are relentlessly portrayed as absent without leave, this irresistible memoir is both a tribute to all those loving, nurturing, black men who are undaunted by the responsibilities of fatherhood and an utterly charming male nonfiction counterpart to Allison Pearsonβs best-selling novel, I Donβt Know How She Does It.
