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 and 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 your 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 lot more than the blood relations you've been lumbered with.WARNING: Strapped for Cash is set in the era of free love and zero consequences. Contains language and behavior of the times.
