About this audiobook
Marguerite Pellerin buries her mother on a Tuesday and opens the bond office on a Wednesday, because the people standing at that counter cannot wait for a woman to finish grieving. A mother with a broken purse. A brother who needs a plan more than he needs a loan. A judge who takes her call on the second ring.
Margo is good at this. She is the best in the county at it, and the reason is a green index card. Every favour she grants goes into a locked drawer in her own handwriting, and nothing in that drawer is ever called in, because the knowing is the power and the asking would spend it.
Theo Reaux has been in love with her since they were fifteen. He has a restaurant going up, a clean cotton shirt, and the one quality she has never been able to price: he will not let her pay him. When the office needs a guarantee, he signs it with his house behind the number, and he does not ask her what the number is.
