Math genius Tanzie presents a different crisis: She’s been offered a generous scholarship to a private school her current teachers say she needs, and Jess can’t come up with the balance. Jess worries constantly about sensitive Nicky, a moody goth regularly beaten up by the local bully. Cleaning houses by day and working in a pub at night, Jess barely earns enough to support her 10-year-old daughter, Tanzie, and her 16-year-old stepson, Nicky, whom she’s been raising since he was 8. Two years ago, hapless Marty temporarily moved out of their home on the southern coast of England to sort out his life. Ten years ago, Jess Thomas got pregnant and dropped out of high school to marry Marty. Popular British author Moyes ( The Girl You Left Behind, 2013, etc.) offers another warmhearted, off-kilter romance, this one between a financially strapped single mother and a geeky tech millionaire.
