I reviewed The Life O'Reilly last week, and it was a good and interesting book. Then I got an email if I wanted to give away a copy, and it is open worldwide so of course I said yes.
Contest:
1 copy of The Life O'Reilly by Brian Cohen.
Rules:
Ends October 3rd.
Open to everyone on this planet.
Leave an email if it is not shown in your profile, or just email it to me.
If you want to you could also tell me which book you are looking forward this fall, but that is not a must. It's just for fun :)
On the outside, Nick O’Reilly has it all: a high-flying legal career, as a partner of an elite Wall Street law firm, and financial security, with an apartment overlooking Central Park. Having grown up in a working-class family, as far back as Nick can remember this was his dream. But at the age of thirty-six, after several years of sacrificing his personal life for professional gain, Nick has started to ponder his future and consider the mark he wants to leave on society both professionally and personally—his legacy.
After being chastised in the press for turning a cold shoulder to the community, the firm calls upon Nick to help rehabilitate its image by handling its first pro bono case. Nick is asked to represent Dawn Nelson, a domestic violence victim who is fighting for custody of her young son, Jordan. A far cry from Nick’s specialty of defending the misdeeds of Corporate America, it is up to Nick to set Dawn and Jordan on a path to a better life. But Nick gets much more than he signed on for, as Dawn forces him to reassess his life choices and, ultimately, be true to himself. Only when Nick finally realizes what is truly important in life does he face his toughest—and possibly final—challenge: a battle for his own survival.
