Leaning On Lily

This is the story of an epic conflict between two families. The wealth and ruthlessness of the Bookmans is pitted against the resilience of the Thompsons and their secret weapon, Tommy Thompson, the Vietnam vet. It is the story of a slow-burning, inextinguishable love that grows between Russ Thompson, a math teacher, and Lily Flores, a fragile poet seeking sanctuary. And it is also the story of two women, released from their suffocating marriages to find new lives, supported by their friends, their families,and by each other.
