The Opportunity

Jack Hanson has never been one to stand out of the crowd. An orphan, an alcoholic, a student. Millions like him. He had resigned to the fact that excitement, danger, hope, and love were the things that would evade him for the rest of his life. Enter Charlotte Jones.

When the woman that makes all others seem obsolete walks into the one place he spends most of his time, his life is flipped upside down. Private jets, tinted windows, unlimited credit cards, and a penthouse apartment overlooking New York City's opportunity ridden streets, a standard of living he couldn't have dreamt. Everything changes, not a single shred of his former life remains the same. But as he falls deeper and deeper into the excess that coats every inch of his new life, he realizes that not everyone is as they seem. Will Jack be able to shun the excess and leave unscathed, or will he be another name in a long list of aspiring authors who never existed.
