NEW RELEASE...
Love or loot?
Erin chose “loot” when Chris, her former husband, competed for her hand against the god of money.
Now, eight years after leaving him, with a promotion within reach, she is poised to take her place among the elite of Wall Street. She will soon be working twenty-four-seven to reorganize a failing company, and she must have someone to care for her children.
She has few options, and she reluctantly concludes she must beg Chris for his help. She has not talked with Chris, written, texted, friended, private messaged, or tweeted Chris since leaving him, but if she cannot convince him to help her, she will lose her promotion. Her dream of wealth will vanish.
Opposites had attracted when they had fallen in love. Erin remembers a Chris who was laid back, satisfied, and unambitious. He seems not to have changed. He lives on a small island with no home mail delivery. He has no obvious means of support.
She fears if she asks Chris to care for their children for the summer, she will be drawn back into his world. She will lose her drive to succeed and everything for which she has been working. If he does not help her, her promotion will be denied, and lightning will not strike a second time. How can she send their children to live with him without becoming entangled herself?
If you have ever “wanted it all,” buy this book! You will enjoy discovering how Erin makes the choice between “love or loot.”
Our Book Review
As usually David Burnett connects the reader easily in to the story and it's characters. Erin and Chris haven't been together for years, their two young girls live with Erin, and they haven't seen Chris since the divorce. Erin is driven by her passion of work and the wealth it will eventually bring as she rises higher on the ladder of success. She was never content with her life in the suburbs which is one of the main reasons for divorce as she felt that Chris had little motivation to achieve more in life than he already had.
Erin's dream finally becomes reality as she gets the promotion she so desires but it comes with a huge problem, the work will take up all her days and nights and will leave her no time for her children who are due to be off for the summer holidays. Having no where else to turn she reluctantly turns to Chris for help, but worries about the two of them connecting after all this time and how each other will respond and the feelings it might bring to the surface.
The author takes us through their journey which is full of deliberations, second thoughts, miscommunications and deep hidden love, which has you wondering if either will open up to each other. There are times to smile through the story and times of suspense as the story takes a twist.
