Abby Forbes is the luckiest girl in the world, she really is. She has a gorgeous boyfriend, a wonderful family, plenty of her Daddy’s money and everybody loves her. She has a lot to be grateful for.
Tony Flanagan also has a lot. Most of which is owned by other people. He has a ton of debts, a vindictive wife, a part-share in someone else’s mistress and a gang of people who bear him a grudge. What could he possibly have that Abby needs?
When the pair meet, it is hate-at-first-sight, instant loathing and mutual distrust. And yet, they find they have more in common than anyone could ever have imagined. Abby needs Tony to keep her alive. Tony needs Abby to set him free. Neither has any idea how.
Black humour, needle-sharp one-liners, moving moments of real insight; this is a compulsive page-turner.
