Patience is a virtue I don't possess and now I may be paying the ultimate price for my impetuosity.

Since I couldn't wait a year until I came into my trust fund, and also neglected to do my due diligence, I borrowed money from someone I shouldn't have— my old high school nemesis, Tomas Malone— and now it's coming back to bite me on the ass.

I need to come up with a quarter-mil fast— like, yesterday— or I could end up as gator bait. So how do I go about solving this conundrum? Genius that I am, I auction myself to the highest bidder— and end up jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire when Tomas bids on me... and wins. Now I'm in deep doggie doo... or am I?

Still, things are not always what they seem.
