Very Slowly All at Once: A Novel

Summary

“Devilishly twisted … I could not put down.”—Gillian McAllister, New York Times bestselling author of Famous Last Words and Wrong Place Wrong Time

“A must-read that ultimately begs the question of just how far any of us would go to hang onto the so-called American Dream.” —Marie Claire

Debt is like fire, and someone wants to burn Mack and Hailey’s lives down to the ground.

Mack and Hailey Evans are on the cusp of living the dream: established careers, two beautiful children, and a new house in the exclusive lakefront enclave of Bratenahl, Ohio.

But modern life is expensive, so the anonymous checks the couple receive from a mysterious company named Sunshine Enterprises are spent before they know it. Could this money be coming from Mack's estranged father, trying to buy his way back into their lives? Or one of Hailey's shady clients? Does it really matter? After all, there are bills to pay.

But this mysterious benefactor expects a hefty return on their investment, and the couple soon learns the hard way that the best things in life are not free. And the price is far steeper than they could ever have imagined.
