Broke and alone, this street smart cynic is about to discover family is about more than blood, and definitely more than money. Brenda Munroe was mercenary even as a child. It was that or going hungry, or worse. From stealing school lunches, she’s moved onto bigger, better and even legal things. Life is finally looking up when her carefully created world comes crashing down. Stuck broke in London, it’s going to take every ounce of her street smarts to survive this time. Strapped for cash — and with a real aversion to the old nine-to-five — Brenda opens a residential school for girls, teaching them in weeks what it’s taken her years to master. Namely, how to get by on good looks and a bucket-load of charm. And no need to screw the old guys, thank you very much. Will her students be the only ones learning new skills, or will Brenda finally understand family’s about a whole lot more than the blood relations you’ve been lumbered with? Strapped for Cash is a rollicking, laugh-out-loud read full of historic art thefts, extortion,and politically-charged B&D. So, sit back and join Brenda on her mission to take down the British aristocracy one prat at a time. TRIGGER WARNING: Set in the seventies, the book contains swearing, drinking, and bad behaviour. Please do not read this novel if this will upset you and cause an adverse reaction. This series is full of bad language, bad behaviour and poorly executed Farrah Fawcett hairstyles. While laugh-out-loud at times, the books also touch on real life, making them raw in places.
