For years, his relationships have crumbled the moment he confessed his hidden truth: he doesn't want to be the man in charge. He wants to be guided, corrected, and cared for. He wants to surrender the heavy burden of adulthood and be made small in the presence of someone firm.
His search for a different kind of life leads him to Mrs. Hart. Living in a quiet, affluent suburb, she is exactly what her website promises: "a strict Mummy for adults who need one."
