Loved Me Once - Podcast

Podcast Description

Maggie McLaurin has it all: beauty; brains; sex appeal; chic New York condo; and what many would consider a dream job. But appearances are deceptive. She’s also burdened with an acute lack of self-esteem, a tradition of bad relationships, debt, and full responsibility for the mother from hell. As Christmas 2008 approaches, Maggie is about to become personal, professional, and financial roadkill, and must make choices that are complicated by her emotional isolation. Given her unfortunate history, can she trust either of the men seemingly offering her salvation? Should she take the job of a lifetime unexpectedly dangled before her by the old-boy-friend-who-made-good, the one who “loved me once,” even though he subsequently humiliated her, broke her heart, and hung onto embarrassing Polaroids of her seventeen-year-old self? Or should she turn, instead, to the insistent, well-connected lover, the romantic who’s determined to put his great-grandmother’s “gossip-column diamond” on her third finger, left hand (as long as she’ll accept the strings he attaches)? This decision matters. A sharply written look at the world of contemporary business and those who keep it interesting, LOVED ME ONCE shows that things are rarely what they seem.
