He Could Be Another Bill Gates by Donna Levin Book Spotlight!

FROM THE BESTSELLING, CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED AUTHOR OF THERE'S MORE THAN ONE WAY HOME COMES A ROMANTIC COMEDY SET IN 21ST CENTURY SAN FRANCISCO, WHERE DIFFERENCES ARE CELEBRATED AND EVERYONE FITS IN ... EXCEPT WHEN THEY DON'T.

Anna Kagen had her heart broken five years ago--so badly that she can't imagine ever having another man in her life. Her ex-husband, Alex, would like her to stay single: that would ensure that he has control of their children, Jack, a 16-year-old on the autism spectrum, and five-year-old Marissa, whose "giftedness" might be wishful thinking on his part, since he needs someone to achieve his own unfulfilled ambitions.

As for Jack, he's ready to open his heart: to the lissome redhead and high school queen bee, Ashleigh. And she's taking an interest in him!

When Anna reconnects with Jason, a man from her past who was once kind to her and who has a special needs son of his own, they seem destined to become a new family. But not if their ex-spouses have anything to say about it....

—Kirkus Reviews

“A delightful, witty tale of contemporary San Francisco life, feature a single mom, her autistic teenage son, and a precocious five-year-old daughter.  

Donna Levin’s comic sensibility lifts a story of tough lives into the realm of enchantment.”

—Joan Steinau Lester, author of Black, White, Other

“(An) engrossing, vibrant novel....With a tightly woven plot that unwinds through dramatic scenes rendered with depth, the novel skillfully portrays the characteristics of Asperger’s and delivers complex, vivid characters. Well-chosen, unforced analogies add further texture to the narrative. In all, this is a smart, wise and bighearted book.”
