Klappentext Single mother Mia Saul discovers that an ATM gives her free money; what she does with that money could change many lives--including her own. Zusammenfassung A fresh and whimsical novel featuring a single mother in Brooklyn who suddenly discovers an ATM machine that gives her free (and unrecorded) cash; what she does with that money changes many lives—including her own. Mia Saul is down on her luck. She’s been dumped by her husband! fired from her job! and forced to move with her ten-year-old daughter Eden to a crummy apartment. Juggling temp jobs! arguing over child support! and trying to keep Eden’s increasingly erratic behavior in check leaves Mia weary and worn out. So when a routine stop at an ATM turns into a stroke of luck Mia never expected! the results are nothing short of...magical. Teetering between guilt and generosity! Mia takes advantage of her sudden windfall in small ways. She also develops relationships with a variety of neighborhood characters she ordinarily would never have crossed paths with—and turns her life around in ways she never thought possible. Poignant! smart! and utterly captivating! this quirky "pay-it-forward" tale captures the everyday concerns of women everywhere.
