A Fool For Love & Money

Love and Money are two important ingredients in a man's recipe for happiness. Unfortunately, those same two ingredients under the wrong circumstances can be a man's recipe for disaster.
Unlucky at love, unemployed and drowning in debt, Thomas Murphy is a man in need of salvation.When an unexpected gift arrives from an unknown source, Tom is confused, yet elated about his new-found fortune. His luck continues when he runs into an old flame he hasn't seen in years and sparks begin to fly. Strange how a man's fate can change when he least expects it - one moment he's miserable and struggling to make ends meet, and the next he's back on his feet and looking forward to a bright future... or so Tom thinks.
Then Tom's rediscovered love reveals the shocking skeletons in her closet and he must decide to forgive and forget or turn his back and walk away. An innocent search on the internet turns up a problem that could stand between Tom's good fortune and ultimately, him and the love of his life. If he chooses to stay, he must find a way to live with what he has to do to keep her in his life. They say that love is blind and money is the root of evil, but sometimes you don't realize the truth of those adages until it's too late.
A Fool for Love & Money is a novel about love, desire, greed, murder and forgiveness.
