Single mother and eternal optimist Jess Thomas has always tried to Do the Right Thing, but life doesn't make it easy - especially after her math-whiz daughter gets a life-changing opportunity they can't afford. Ed Nicholls is a brilliant tech millionaire whose life is fallying apart when he happens upon Jess and her family stranded on the side of the road. In perhaps his first unselfish act ever, Ed agrees to drive them, plust their pungent dog, Norma, to the Maths Olympiad - and to a prize that could change their lives forever. It's a hilarious, heart-warming story of family dysfunction, devotion and love found in the unlikeliest of places.
