Book excerpt: Yes, I quit my job. The one at the high-powered law firm I’ve been working toward my entire life. And, don’t look at me like I’m losing it. I never lose it. But now that I’ve gone out on my own, my first client turns out to be the infamous Drew Larson. A man I should be afraid of. A man any woman should be afraid of. Then I see the pictures, and not only do I feel compelled to represent him, but I agree to marry him so he can get what’s his. We’ll have to live together for six months. It’s a means to an end for both of us, except I’m afraid that it’s more for me because the neglected child inside me calls out to the deeply damaged child in him. But what could we possibly have to give each other? Yet he treats me like no one ever has before. Like I’m precious. All I want is for him to lose control again and touch me like he did that night in the car before the police dragged him off me. The more time I spend with him, the more I see the real Drew, the one his father tried to destroy when he was just a little boy. But, during the holidays, when he finds out the secret I’m keeping, will it make things better? Or will bad Drew return with a vengeance?
Download or read book How I Paid for College written by Marc Acito and published by Crown. This book was released on 2004-09-07 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A deliciously funny romp of a novel about one overly theatrical and sexually confused New Jersey teenager’s larcenous quest for his acting school tuition It’s 1983 in Wallingford, New Jersey, a sleepy bedroom community outside of Manhattan. Seventeen-year-old Edward Zanni, a feckless Ferris Bueller–type, is Peter Panning his way through a carefree summer of magic and mischief. The fun comes to a halt, however, when Edward’s father remarries and refuses to pay for Edward to study acting at Juilliard. Edward’s truly in a bind. He’s ineligible for scholarships because his father earns too much. He’s unable to contact his mother because she’s somewhere in Peru trying to commune with Incan spirits. And, as a sure sign he’s destined for a life in the arts, Edward’s incapable of holding down a job. So he turns to his loyal (but immoral) misfit friends to help him steal the tuition money from his father, all the while practicing for his high school performance of Grease. Disguising themselves as nuns and priests, they merrily scheme their way through embezzlement, money laundering, identity theft, forgery, and blackmail. But, along the way, Edward also learns the value of friendship, hard work, and how you’re not really a man until you can beat up your father—metaphorically, that is. How I Paid for College is a farcical coming-of-age story that combines the first-person tone of David Sedaris with the byzantine plot twists of Armistead Maupin. It is a novel for anyone who has ever had a dream or a scheme, and it marks the introduction to an original and audacious talent.
