Windfall

Jennifer E. Smith

Alice loves Teddy, her best friend, but has never told him. On his eighteenth birthday she buys him a lottery ticket on a lark. To their astonishment he wins $140 million, and in an instant, everything changes. As a kid, Alice's parents died just over a year apart from each other. And Teddy's father abandoned his family not long after that, leaving them to grapple with his gambling debts. Through it all, Teddy and Alice have leaned on each other. But with Teddy's newfound wealth, a gulf opens between them. Can they find their way back to each other?
