SUZANNE HAD IT ALL. THEN SHE LOST IT. NOW SHE WANTS IT BACK
Suzanne Braun had it all - beauty, status and money. Then her husband died - after making a series of foolish investments that squandered her inheritance. When a promising relationship with an aging suitor founders during prenuptial negotiations, Suzanne finds herself a social pariah, universally regarded as an unscrupulous golddigger.
Her prospects look bleak until her late husband's brother, Douglas, invites her to spend the summer at Inglewood, the family cottage on Lake Joseph, a playground for Toronto's uber-rich. Suzanne heads north with one goal in mind: to return home with a wealthy fiancé in tow.
Douglas' wife Catherine dreads Suzanne's arrival. She fears that the sexy widow will set her sights on her brother, Mark, a successful businessman who is returning to Canada after 14 years in Japan. The prospect that this social climbing opportunist might penetrate the family circle is too horrible to contemplate, and Catherine will stop at nothing to prevent it.
An irresistible force is about to meet an immovable object.
"The cast of characters was hilarious. The dialogue was witty. I've often said men can't write romance as well as women, but Michael Betcherman certainly did a fantastic job of changing my mind." - Holly Mercer, BookBinge.com
"Forget what I said about male authors and romance writing. Michael Betcherman had me thinking twice with his romantic comedy, Suzanne. I won't be surprised at all if this plot gets turned into a TV drama." -- InMyBooks.com
