Under the influence
(Book - Regular Print)

Drinking cost Helen her marriage and custody of her son, Ollie. Weekend visits with her son are awkward; he's drifting away from her, fast. Helen meets Ava and Swift Havilland, wealthy, connected philanthropists, who have their own charity devoted to rescuing dogs. And she meets Elliott, a kind, quiet accountant who offers loyalty and love with none of her newfound friends' fireworks. As Helen increasingly falls under the Havillands' influence, Ava and Swift hold out the most seductive gift: their influence and help to regain custody of her son. But when Ollie witnesses an accident involving Swift, his grown son, and the daughter of the Havillands' housekeeper, Helen must choose between the truth and the friends who have given her everything.
