An Honourable Wager by Sarah Swatridge

-


Lizzie lives a simple life… until Jack moves in next door!

She’s badgered by the local newspaper who want to print a story about her. They challenge her to be self-sufficient for a year. Eventually she accepts – but on her terms. It’s a difficult year, but she learns what’s important to her.

Could you live off the land for a year? Maybe if the consequences were important? When is a bet, not a bet? Lizzie wasn’t interested in Paul’s money. At least, until she found a cause she felt strongly about.

See how this becomes An Honourable Wager in Sarah Swatridge’s intriguing novel.
