Beskrivelse

"... the book is full of delightful twists and reversals;"

"... as a bit of escapism, it does its job." - Kirkus Reviews

"Kronwith has written a magnificent, comedic crime caper...

"Author Kronwith creates characters who are riotous, intelligent, and, in their own ways, relatable and often lovable." - BookTrib

A lustful physician and a beautiful detective clash in a comedy caper involving a billionaire's murder, his stunning widow and an amorous, aging assassin.

Dr. Joseph Peck, a respected and caring physician, has one vice - he's addicted to love. And one unusual secret - his best friend since high-school is a retired Mafia Don.

Anna Franklin, stunning, ruthless and intelligent, learns this secret.  She also discovers her husband will soon be seeking divorce, relegating her to a prenup pittance instead of billions were he to die - soon.

Anna, seeking the friends' assistance in arranging this speedy demise, offers both men millions of dollars plus an extra quid pro Joe for the good doctor - sexual romps sufficiently intense to make his recent carnal dry-spell a vague memory. The Don knows but one ex-associate to call upon for the hit - another retiree, known as Lover Boy, who despite being on Social Security, is still quite able to live up to his deadly reputation - and nickname.

Their one obstacle? - Detective Jane Rieger, a beautiful, troubled cop with a checkered past whose love life has also recently turned non-existent. Committed to unraveling the conspiracy, the detective soon realizes that bringing everyone to justice will have the unintended consequence of adding to her growing list of personal woes. Thus, she will face more than one grim, difficult choice.

Lover Boy is a crime caper mixing humor with pathos, filled with quirky characters and often hilarious dialogue - all leading to an unexpected conclusion not soon forgotten.
