    About this ebook

    If fortune is a moving target, so is love in this dark Romantic Comedy of paradise lost and paradise regained. Curtis Cooke thought he had it all: a beautiful wife, a home in suburbia, and a prestigious job. But all of that is about to change, as Curtis finds himself confronting the twin disasters of a dissolving marriage and a global financial meltdown. When he is ejected from his home, Curtis finds he has his hands full with their six-year-old son Sammy, whose penchant for painting leads Curtis to the world of art and to a valuable lesson in his search for love and happiness.
