Jonathan is a man who mostly has it all. Being an money manager means millions of dollars in bonuses. He has a beautiful trophy wife who is happy to live the life of the rich and famous.
But ... he loses it all. The job is lost because of securities fraud. The wife divorces him because, let's face it, there's other rich men to be found. He loses his home, the summer vacation home, the Bentley.
He returns to his hometown because his emotionally distant father is dying. While there, he attends his 25th school reunion and runs into the one girl who captured his interest all those years ago. She also comes with an abusive husband.
This is basically a story of losing it all and starting all over ... hopefully to get it right the next time around.
I did not particularly like this one. I did not connect with any of the characters .. they were strangers who remained strangers. I had no vested interest.
I feel like reading this was like slogging through quicksand. It seemed very slow and difficult to read. I more or less skipped through a lot of pages.
I will say that just because 'I' did not particularly care for this does not mean 'you' won't like it either. I wish I had enjoyed it.
