From the bestselling queen of heart and humour, JENNY PEARSON, comes a great big soaring adventure about family and finding happiness. When Frank John Davenport inherits piles of money from a grandma he didn' t know he had, things take an unexpected turn. . . Because the money comes with STRICT instructions. . . and a NEW grandpa. Frank quickly compiles a list of all the ways he can spend the money and look after his grumpy grandpa.
