A lovely story of two best friends, once upon a time, who fall out over a man -- specifically Rosie's cheating husband, who only wants her money. But on the day Rosie wises up and kicks him out, she wins the lottery! How to get rid of the husband without handing over the money? And where does her ex best friend fit in the picture?
Rosie is a wonderful character and I rooted for her throughout. The story is not bad. Fun read.

Entertaining inspirational book of an overweight woman who loses weight and her life.
2 member(s) found this review helpful.
Rosie is fed up with her husband's mistreatment and her weight gain. Through the course of the book she loses both, but gains much more. This was slow to get into, but worth reading to the end.

Amanda D. (I really enjoyed this story. It was a fun and fast read.
Rosie Gardener fell for her husband. Her friend Vicki tried to tell her that her husband was a jerk. After she kicks him out,she starts a excercise program and diet plan. Then she wins $ 302 million dollars in the Wonderball lottery.Kent lerks around when he heard about the win. She and her personal trainer start a romance. You'll have to read the book to find out the rest.
Veronica M. from KENNESAW, GA wrote on 8/30/2006...Overall story was good. There's a portion that is a bit "out there" - a woman buried under a tree swings and does things to the living.... I don't really buy that part, but the rest of the story is great.
Good book from Fern Michaels about a woman who transforms herself after winning the lottery.
Lori F. from MORENO VALLEY, CA wrote on 7/17/2006...Excellent book. I could not put it down.
Rosie finally kicks her two-timing husband out on their 3rd anniversary. The next day she wins $302 million in the lottery and Kent wants his share.
Loreta K. from PLEASANT HILL, OR wrote on 7/5/2006...Rosie wins lottery just as she was preparing to kicking her husband out. She'd rather pass up the $302 million than share with her no-good husband. While working on a new image she works out with personal trainer Jack. She becomes stronger and learns to trust love again.
I love Fern Michels and this was truly an enjoyable read!
Pretty good book. Easy read. A little cheesy, but a good story.
