A bit of guilty entertainment. Morgan is living life his way in Aspen, Colorado. Then Risa moves in. Gorgeous Risa, compared in the book to both Charlize Theron and Brooklyn Decker, turns out to be a handful.When Risa's dog is killed by Morgan's falling marijuana potted plant, yes this is the kid of zaniness you can expect, Risa goes for the jugular and sues. Morgan stands to lose everything.Then he hears about a winner-take-all golf tournament with a $2 million prize. This could be the answer to all his problems, right? Wrong. The tournament brings in a zany bunch of characters that only add to Morgan's issues. Everything from a swindler to a crazed mad man.Much of the plot is a stretch, but Morgan is an endearing character. I must admit that Risa danced on my very last nerve. I wanted Morgan to get his old life back, free of her. The other women in his life (Mandie, Pamela, Debbie) were stronger and more interesting. They also seemed to care more about him. But I digress...I'm not a golfer, but I can see where golfers would enjoy the tense tournament scenes and the ending is definitely a wild ride. If you are looking for an entertaining summer read, check this one out. Just enjoy the ride and don't sweat the details.Note: I received a complimentary copy for review purposes.
