We All Live Here by Jojo Moyes

Single mum Lila:
Has got her hands full with two unruly daughters.
Is the author of an unexpectedly successful self-help book.
Is the impulsive owner of a flashy sportscar.

She also:
Has a stepdad who quietly moved in after her mother died.
Has a deadline looming on a book that just won’t write itself.
Is exchanging school-gate daggers with her ex’s pregnant girlfriend.

It feels like she alone is holding up the sky.

So the last thing she needs is a stranger at the door.
Not even when he’s a Hollywood star.
Needing a place to stay.
With a million-dollar smile she doesn’t trust for a second.

Because this is Gene – the father she hasn’t seen in 16 years . . .
