This is an awesome book! I was lying in bed one night, staring at the ceiling, not feeling tired and decided to pick this book up and read it. I could not put it down and ended up finishing it before I went to sleep. It’s an easy, quick read – it only took me about an hour and a half to read it! It’s a great story that leaves you on the edge of your seat wondering what’s going to happen next.
The funny thing is I didn’t read the book flap and I didn’t pay attention to who the co-author was so, through the whole book, I was wondering who the story was about. I know – duh! haha! Anyway, that was actually part of the fun of it and what kept it somewhat suspenseful because I was dying to get to the end to see if it told who these people were! You see, through the whole book the people are referred to by what they are known for – the Broker, the Executive, the Driver, etc. I actually thought that was kind of cool because it made it easy to know exactly who was saying what. You know how sometimes you’re reading a story with several characters and you think, who is this person again? It just made it easy to keep track.
It’s a great story of how a generous spirit can be so rewarding in so many ways. A great book for anyone to read!
