Perfect Skin

Jon Marshall, a thirty-something doctor, has come a long way since his bachelor days. He's a partner in his own medical practice, owns a nice house in a nice suburb, and cruises around town in a BMW. And he has a six-month-old daughter, Lily, affectionately known as the Bean, with whom he's learning the joys of being a single dad. But Jon's life hasn't taken the path that he thought it would back in his twenties. Newly single, he awaits the challenges of many dating misadventures. His computer has been seized by surly software. He's absurdly clumsy with domestic pets, and his sexy new running buddy, Ashley, has his mind running in circles. A major bestseller in Australia, Nick Earls's Perfect Skin is a touching, frank, and laugh-out-loud funny look at single fatherhood and dating in a post Duran-Duran age.AUTHORBIO: NICK EARLS is the author of two previous novels, Zigzag Street and Bachelor Kisses, two collections of short stories, and two novels for young adults.
