Description

From the author of the Blackboard bestseller Fed Up with the Fanny comes another fast-paced urban thrilled, the story of a man who, for the love of money, will face the underground worlds of scandals, sex -- and street justice. West Owens needs money and has struggled his entire life to get it. When the oppotunity of a lifetime comes his way, he does not hesitate...despite the risks that put his life in danger. Soon he finds he has more money that he's ever seen -- and he'll do anything to keep it. In Money for Good, Franklin White, acclaimed author of the bestsellers Fed Up with the Funny and Cup of Love, brings readers yet another high-energy thriller about temptation, greed, and justice. When readers first meet West Owens, he is a small-time businessman who can count his friends on one hand and the amount in his bank account on the other. When he is summoned for grand jury duty, however, he is introduced to Lauren Richards. Resourceful and ruthless, Lauren is able to drag West into a web of deceit involving the city of Atlanta's case against drug informant Pete Rossi. Suddenly, West finds himself in a world where charges of murder, possible prison bids, and thousands of dollars are at stake.
