FREE: The Cure For Modern Life by Lisa Tucker

The listing, The Cure For Modern Life by Lisa Tucker has ended.

Matthew and Amelia were once in love and planning to raise a family together, but a decade later, they have become professional enemies.


To Amelia, who has dedicated her life to medical ethics, Matthew's job as a high-powered pharmaceutical executive has turned him into a heartless person who doesn't care about anything but money. Now they're kept in balance only by Matthew's best and oldest friend, Ben, a rising science superstar -- and Amelia's new boyfriend.


That balance begins to crumble one night when, coming home to his upscale Philadelphia loft, Matthew finds himself on a desolate bridge face-to-face with a boy screaming for help. Homeless for most of his life, ten-year-old Danny is as streetwise as he is world-weary, and his desperation to save his three-year-old sister means he will do whatever it takes to get Matthew's help. What follows is an escalating game of one-upmanship between Matthew, Amelia, and Danny, as all three players struggle to defend what is most important to them -- and are ultimately forced to reconsider what they truly want.


The Cure for Modern Life is about what it means in the twenty-first century to be responsible, to care about other people, and to do the right thing.
