A hilarious and poignant reflection on what money can and cannot fix.<\/b>
\n58,642,129. That\u2019s how many dollars seventeen-year-old Fortuna Jane Belleweather just won in the lotto jackpot. It\u2019s also about how many reasons she has for not coming forward to claim her prize.
\nProblem #1: Jane is still a minor, and if anyone discovers she bought the ticket underage, she\u2019ll either have to forfeit the ticket, or worse . . .
\nProblem #2: Let her hoarder mother cash it. The last thing Jane\u2019s mom needs is millions of dollars to buy more junk. Then . . .
\nProblem #3: Jane\u2019s best friend, aspiring journalist Brandon Kim, declares on the news that he\u2019s going to find the lucky winner. It\u2019s one thing to keep her secret from the town \u2014 it\u2019s another thing entirely to lie to her best friend. Especially when . . .
\nProblem #4: Jane\u2019s ex-boyfriend, Holden, is suddenly back in her life, and he has big ideas about what he\u2019d do with the prize money. As suspicion and jealousy turn neighbor against neighbor, and no good options for cashing the ticket come forward, Jane begins to wonder: Could this much money actually be a bad thing?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\t\t
