Maybe he should loosen up and enjoy more of a social life, but in his mind, that's tantamount to opening the floodgates to emotional chaos. He agrees, however, to join the flat-sitting scheme in his building and look after another tenant's flat in exchange for a similar watch over his when he's travelling for his work.\u003cbr\u003eA floor away in the same building, Russ McNeely is happy with his life as a freelance cook and a self-confessed domestic slob. He also joins the flat-sitting scheme, both to be neighbourly and to help keep his flat in order, as Russ also travels for his work.\u003cbr\u003eFor a while, the very dissimilar men never meet. Martin is horrified at the mess at Russ's flat, while Russ finds Martin's minimalist style creepy. But in a spirit of generosity, each of them starts to help the other out by rearranging things in their own inimitable way.\u003cbr\u003eUntil the day a hiccup in the schedule brings them face-to-face at last.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CLARE LONDON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46578857050353,"sku":"2940165975097","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/5433\/7265\/files\/2940165975097_p0.jpg?v=1765756251","url":"https:\/\/shop.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940165975097","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
