Every Damn Penny (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798276711102)

He was born with exactly 2,362,500,000 seconds. Most people hoard theirs. Charlie Grayson spent every damn penny.

From the first defiant scream in a 1975 delivery room to the last quiet heartbeat on a porch swing in 2060, this is the story of one ordinary man who finally learned the only rule that matters:

The machine is broken. Spend accordingly.

Charlie wasted years on "later." He chose the wrong woman once. He chose the wrong job more than once. He learned the hard way that love is the only currency death can't freeze, and that regret is interest on seconds you never spent.

But he also learned how to get it right: Midnight pancakes. Forgiving fast. Dancing badly in the kitchen at three in the afternoon. Showing up when it was hard and staying when it was harder.

By the time the unseen clock finally stopped, Charlie was bankrupt, grinning, and richer than any billionaire who ever lived, because every second he poured into another human being was still paying dividends long after his heart went quiet.

Part love letter, part warning, part last will and testament, Every Damn Penny is a soul-shattering novel about what happens when a man decides to live like every second might be the last one he'll ever get.

Because one of them will be.

"Read this book, then call someone you love. You'll thank me later." - early reader, tears still drying

Spend accordingly. The meter is running.
