Description: Terry Winston is a good man. He's a hardworking, devoted single father in a loving relationship. He's the kind of man who would do anything for those he loves. When Catherine, the absentee mother of his eleven-year-old twin girls, decides to sue for joint custody for her own selfish reasons, Terry must draw upon all of his strength as well as that of his extended family, which supports and loves him, including: Jackie, his girlfriend of four years, who is also a single parent; she is beautiful but is insecure about being a "full-figured" woman. Roland, his best friend since his college days, a successful family attorney and reluctant bachelor -- or so he says. Mercedes, Jackie's best friend, a PR representative for the Dallas Cowboys, who throws herself into her career to avoid dealing with her mother's death. And last but not least, Momma C, Jackie's mother and the family matriarch. As the preface states, The Shirt off His Back "... is a grand tribute to the men who have lived in the literary shadows of dogs, bastards and hoodlums far too long. 'Bout time". Indeed.
