Until the day 12-year-old smartaleck Molly Parker confronts him in a parking lot and claims to be his daughter - the only daughter of Jen Parker, Joshs college sweetheart and the still the only girl hes ever loved. Trouble is, Jen Parker died last year, and now Molly has tracked down the father she never knew, the one her mother never wanted her to know about.
"A winning novel, creating a realistic character in Molly by authentically capturing both her fragility and pluck." - Booklist
