Rosie
Gardener and Vickie Winters were best friends, closer than sisters.
Svelte and single Vickie only wanted the best for her friend - and she
couldn't stay quiet when Rosie, overweight and unable to see her own
worth, fell under the spell of Kent Bliss, a two-timing cad. The night
before Rosie's wedding was the last time Vickie spoke to her - to warn
her about Kent's true nature.
On her third wedding
anniversary, Rosie realizes Vickie was right - and that the Porsche and
other indulgences were her attempts to buy the love of a man who only
cared about himself. Fed up with his mistreatment, she vows to change
her life - by kicking him out. The next day, she begins a diet and
exercise regime. But more life-changing news awaits: Rosie has the
single winning ticket in the Wonderball lottery - and she's won $302
million.
With Kent ready to claim a share of her money, Rosie
needs her friends more than ever. When Vickie returns to Savannah,
Rosie learns the power of forgiveness. As she loses weight and works
out under the eye of sexy personal trainer Jack Silver, a new Rosie
emerges. This pretty woman is making a fresh start, and no one's greed
or bitterness will stop her from jumping into life and love with a
passion she didn't know she possessed.
This was a quick read, that was just enjoyable to read. Rosie was good person who had a forgiving heart, and Jack turned out to be ok too.
