<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>When Lena wins the jackpot in the Maryland lottery, she quits her job, becomes engaged, and revels in her newfound popularity, but ultimately suspects that fortune comes with a price.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Lenora Stone used to say if she didn't have bad luck, she wouldn't have any luck at all. At age thirty-eight, instead of socializing with Baltimore's A-list, she photographs them for <em>Baltimore Scene</em>, a glossy magazine filled with beautiful people who, unlike Lenora, never have to worry about car trouble and overdue bills. As much as she'd love to slam the door on her overbearing boss, quitting isn't an option. She's barely making her mortgage payments and, though her condo might not be a palace, it's hers. Lately even things with her boyfriend Gerald haven't been right. They've been together for three years but he can't seem to ask the one question she's been waiting for. But what Lenora doesn't know is that her luck is about to change...</p><p>Just when she thinks things can't get worse, Lenora wins the jackpot in the Maryland lottery. In a heartbeat, all her dreams become possible. She quits her job and indulges her every desire-starting with a shiny, silver BMW and a million-dollar mansion. Gerald is finally ready to put a ring on her finger and the city's most exclusive women's group is dying for her to join, officially moving Lenora from behind the lens, into the limelight. But in Lenora's lavish new world, all that glitters definitely isn't gold. Her old friend's are concerned about her sudden changes, and Ray, a sexy, young landscaper Lenora covered for the magazine is looking for more than a purely professional relationship.</p><p>As her life starts to come together, the things Lenora holds dear begin to fall apart. Has her world really changed for the better, or does fortune come with a heavy price?</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"<i>Money Can't Buy Love </i>grabs the reader's interest and won't let go."--<b><i>http: //sweetsoulsisters.weebly.com/ on MONEY CAN'T BUY LOVE</b></i><br><br>"Briscoe uses her skill as a talented storyteller to deliver just the right touch of intrigue."--<b>Publishers Weekly on SISTERS & LOVERS</b>, <b><i>-</b></i><br><br>"Entirely readable...Briscoe's message is a warm one."--<b>The Washington Post Book World on SISTERS & LOVERS</b>, <b><i>-</b></i><br><br>"Humorous, poignant, realistic, and romantic...finely crafted...[SISTERS & LOVERS] skillfully uses witty but realistic dialogue to keep the story moving along...recommended."--<b>Library Journal on SISTERS & LOVERS</b>, <b><i>-</b></i><br><br>"It is an entertaining story that leaves you feeling pretty good about your cash-strapped existence."--<b><i>The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on MONEY CAN'T BUY LOVE</b></i><br><br>"Known for her skill in developing realistic characters, Briscoe has outdone herself in her depiction of Lenora...<i>Money Can't Buy Love</i> is an excellent summer read." <p/>--<b><i>Philadelphia Inquirer on MONEY CAN'T BUY LOVE</b></i><br><br>"Riveting...lively...hilarious...three sisters who are remarkably different except in one respect: their men are driving them crazy."--<b>Mademoiselle on SISTERS & LOVERS</b>, <b><i>-</b></i><br><br>"Fans of Briscoe, frothy chick lit, and African American pop fiction will enjoy this as a quick summer read."--<b><i>Library Journal on MONEY CAN'T BUY LOVE</b></i><br><br>"One of the spiciest novels of the summer...
