A Links In the Chain Story A rich man is about to set foot into an unknown world, while a Good Samaritan fears he'll have to close the charity he's spent his life building. Poised to lose it all, they might find what they need most in each other. Son of a wealthy importer, Galen Merriweather lives to broker deals, and he's damn good at it. But it's getting harder to ignore the kind of man his father is—a man who would pay Galen's brother's lover to leave… a man who'd demand Galen retrieve a quarter-million-dollar check from a struggling homeless shelter. Robert Kotke knows the money is too good to be true, but it's a godsend that could help so many people. Still, he hands it over when Galen shows up. But he isn't done with Galen yet, and he's going to challenge everything Galen ever believed. Galen will face an impossible decision: the redemption he's come to realize he wants, or the life he'd always dreamed of.
