Synopsis

From Tracy McMillan, an author who counts both Oprah Winfrey and Tina Fey as fans, Multiple Listings is a comedic family drama focusing on a single mother whose ex-con father is released from prison after seventeen years and unexpectedly moves in with her, her son, and her much younger boyfriend.

Nicki Daniels owns a home appraisal business, but real estate is her true passion: she lives for open houses and really knows her way around a floor plan. And especially at this juncture of her life, real estate has come to signify the stability she is trying to build with her teenage son, Cody, and her much younger boyfriend, Jake. She’s finally ready to find the perfect house for the three of them and work on a new business venture with Jake that she thinks will jump-start their lives together.

Meanwhile, Ronnie, a longtime inmate at a nearby correctional facility, is getting some good news for once—there was a mistake in his sentencing, and he’s finally eligible to get out of prison. Ronnie decides his best option to avoid homelessness is to move in with his estranged daughter: Nicki. Even though they haven’t spoken in years, her door is always open to him, right?

Harkening to the work of bestselling author Maria Semple and imbued with wit and profound insight into relationships, Multiple Listings speaks poignantly—and often hilariously—about the ties that bind families of all types together.

Goodreads review by Megan

Let me start by saying that I love reading books that make me feel...normal. So often we feel like our lives are crazy, like we must be on the edge of losing it, and that others are certainly looking at us wondering what our problem is. Sure, it's usually mostly in our heads, but there's a certain c......more

Goodreads review by Jayne

I have multiple nice comments about MULTIPLE LISTINGS, an uplifting and witty rom-com/family drama about a single mom whose ex-con father unexpectantly moves in with her, after being released from a 17-year stint in prison.

Goodreads review by Bandit

This book is simply and unambiguously a chicklit waiting to be a chickflick. It's so comfortable being what it is and utilizing various clichés of the genre, it's practically admirable. No surprises here, this book reads exactly like something written by a person whose other literary credits are dat......more

Goodreads review by Douglas

This is a good book for what it does, but it is also the kind of book that dudes refuse to read. So while I am going to kind of review it, I am also refusing to admit that. It is the kind of book designed to make women readers feel comfortable—and it succeeds wildly at that, full as it is of affirmi......more
