Synopsis:
Jake's girlfriend is pregnant, his worst nightmare come true. Overwhelmed with memories of a drunk abusive father and a miserable childhood, Jake doesn't think he's fit to be a dad. Now, he must make an impossible choice: clean up and get his life together (and lay off the booze while he's at it), or get rid of the problem...
My Review:
First off, I'd like to say that I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Jake's girlfriend is on his case again, this time because she's pregnant and needs him to step up and get his act together. He spends his time drinking and being lazy. So of course anyone who would be expecting a baby would want them to cut back on the drinking and get a full time job. Babies aren't cheap that's for sure. Only problem is, Jake is freaking out. He didn't have the best role model as a dad. In fact, he has quite a lot of bad memories. So while sitting on the couch soaking up the information his girlfriend just threw at him, he ends up thinking about his dad. Is he ready to be a dad himself? What should he do? Should he make her get rid of it, or step up and be the man they both need him to be?
This is certainly a super quick read. I certainly wasn't expecting the outcome, lol. With that being said, it actually wasn't bad. My husband who doesn't read what so ever, asked me what I was reading. I told him... and he said, "What! Really? Yeah! That sounds like my kind of book." So that says A LOT!!!! It's worth a read, so check it out!! :) It's only like 27 pages long. A lot can happen in a short period of time.
I rate Daddy's Boy 4 stars.
