Good Morning, Heartache

About the Book

Successful screenwriter and novelist Kelly Brisbane is the quintessential ladies' man. His most recent "trophy" was Eveline Green, the famous ballerina and humanitarian, but he's still trying to cope with her death after she was killed by a land mine in sub-Sahara Africa. Her absence is bad enough, but losing her to what Brisbane considers a useless cause rankles him to no end.

Since Eveline's death, Brisbane has hit the bottle-hard. One night he drinks too much and collapses. He's hospitalized and searching for a reason to go on when his daughter, Cerulia, encourages him to start counseling.

But Brisbane can't give up his philandering ways so easily, especially when his new therapist is quite the sexpot. He decides to move to London in hopes of starting anew, but soon meets the drop-dead gorgeous Viktorie Grovoka, a Czech beauty who captivates him with her wit and wisdom. This time, Kelly is determined to make it work. But can a man truly change?

Humorous and clever, Good Morning, Heartache is a rollicking ride through one man's life of love, loss, and healing
