Suzanne

A Romantic Comedy by Michael Betcherman

"The cast of characters was hilarious ... The dialogue was witty ... I've often said men can't write romance as well as women but Michael Betcherman did a fantastic job of changing my mind." - Holly Mercer, Book Binge

"A delightful farce ... Jane Austen meets Carrie Bradshaw, or maybe Woody Allen meets Shakespeare." - Jake Onrot, Vancouver BC.

Suzanne Braun's husband has died, but not before making a series of reckless investments that depleted his fortune. When a promising relationship with a well-heeled and aging suitor ends badly, the beautiful widow finds herself a social pariah, universally regarded as an unscrupulous golddigger. Her prospects look bleak when her late husband's brother invites her to spend the summer at the family cottage on Lake Joseph, a playground for Toronto's rich - and very rich. Suzanne heads north with one goal in mind: to return home with a wealthy fiancé in tow. Read the synopsis

"Finally! A good reason to check your inbox."

The story is told through emails exchanged among the characters. But instead of reading the emails in a book, they're delivered straight to your inbox in "real time", a few emails a day over the two and a half weeks it takes for the story to unfold. Read three emails from the story for free.

You can't turn a page to find out what happens next ... you have to wait for the next email to arrive.

"It's like peeking in on emails from different characters, as though the reader were cc'd on their messages." - Katie Haegele, Philadelphia Inquirer
