A very emotional story that will bring tears to the reader’s eyes and occasional laughter. The way Joe reconnects with his daughter is beautiful, and rediscovering her real father seems to have been a beautiful journey in itself.Gisela Dixon for Readers’ Favorite

Joe spent most of his time at the bar, where they knew him as Gemini Joe, a charismatic, funny man who was the life of any party, but his family didn’t see this side of him at home. A bottle of scotch on the table was all it took to set him off, causing his children to hide at the top of the stairs, listening and waiting for the fighting to stop. At times, his creative side came out in the form of poetry, drawings, and inventions, including the first design for a toothpaste cap that stayed on the tube. Tragically, he was never to achieve success. The struggle with alcohol caused Joe to walk away from his wife and children. Estranged from his oldest daughter, years went by until he wrote her a letter. It included a poem that he had written which triggered her curiosity. She didn’t know much about his childhood and asked him to tell her his story.
