Larry has been laid-off, his wife is cheating on him with his best friend… and he just won the lottery.
Lucky Stiff had me smiling throughout. I enjoyed walking alongside our main character as he navigated the awesome question of, “what would you do if you won the lottery?”

Witty, fun, and couldn’t put it down. The characters came to life through Barbara’s carefully chosen words and make the reader feel like an observer of the action.

I couldn’t put it down: the character of Larry Sortino and his interesting predicament kept me turning the pages at a furious rate.

A clever rollercoaster ride. The buildup, like that long chinking chain in the carts climb, is worth every anticipating moment for the thrills of the rise and falls, twists and turns in this lighthearted story.

This is a quick, fun, well-written tale with enough plot twists to make the ride worth it.
