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.”

MY REVIEW
Erin and Chris
had a good marriage. They loved each other, as well as their twin daughters
Abby and Ashley. While Erin was ambitious career wise, Chris was content with
his mediocre writing career, writing books at a leisure pace. This caused a
rift between them. When Erin accepted a promotion in New York, Chris refused to
follow her. So Erin took the twins, divorced Chris, and didn’t look back. Now,
a decade later, Erin has finally gotten the promotion and recognition she has
worked so hard for. But, this leaves her with no choice but to ask Chris to
keep the twins for the summer. With no contact in all these years, she doesn’t
know how Chris will respond. Or if he is even willing to.
I love the
stories that Burnett creates and this one was no different. He is a master at
delving into the core of relationships. It makes you almost feel a part of the
tribulation of the couple. I could relate to the drive and determination of
Erin, but later, her personality took a nose-dive and I found myself not liking
her at all. Chris, on the other hand, had my sympathy all the way. A great story
well worth reading.
