"A hilarious riches-to-rags-and-redemption saga." --Publishers Weekly

When You've Had Everything, What's Next?

A wealthy boyfriend, designer clothes, exotic vacations, and a Central Park penthouse--these are a few of Eva Cantrell's favorite things. But when her boyfriend turns out to be an investment swindler and goes on the run, he leaves an unsuspecting Eva without a couture bag to her name.

With the gravy train permanently derailed, suddenly nobody is who Eva thought they were. Her socialite best friend has become her worst enemy, and her new attorney is an all-out hunk who makes it difficult to keep their relationship strictly professional. And with her return to her old south side Chicago neighborhood, Eva's also got her hands full dealing with her always out-there family of dreamers, divas, and straight-up scammers. Now, Eva has to face the past, get a life that's truly hers, and find out if the best things in life really are free. . . .

      Living a VIP lifestyle on someone else's dime leads to eye-popping changes for a former New York beauty editor in Berry's hilarious riches-to-rags-and-redemption saga (after The Next Best Thing
      ). Fashionista Eva Cantrell loves being spoiled rotten by investment banker Donovan J. Dorsey, but a fateful opportunity to revise her thinking occurs when Donovan vanishes after being accused of running a multimillion-dollar Ponzi scheme. Eva returns to Manhattan from a would-be glamorous Swiss vacation to discover Donovan's mother has sold her possessions, the airline has lost eight of her Vuitton bags, and she's been mass defriended on Facebook. Donovan's shady lawyer offers refuge while her friends Kyle and Tameka try to get her back on her feet, but ultimately Eva realizes she must rescue herself. Eva's juicy journey to self-enlightenment amounts to another fine outing for Berry.
