All His Own Hair - A Romantic Comedy

Ferne Tollivera is on a mission. Now that Sparrow, her ward, has reached nine years of age, she reckons he needs a male role model in his life. With typical efficiency she sets about finding a father-figure by drawing up a series of checklists for each candidate, and following a strict protocol for interviewing them.

So far, all the contenders have failed miserably to get enough ticks in the right boxes.

But Ferne is focused and nothing is going to stop her from fulfilling her responsibilities …

... except maybe a saboteur out to wreck her business; drunken neighbours; her unfortunate past from which it is so difficult to escape; her estranged mother; long-lost sister; and her Jack Russell, Merrie, who is not above galloping over and nipping any prospective role models she thinks Will Not Do.

Katie Fforde (best-selling rom com author) said of 'All His Own Hair': 'Susan Alison handles difficult issues with quirky humour and uplifting results.'
