"I am not made by the things that happen to me, but only by my reaction to them." "Pattie's Best Deal", the first novel in a series of four romantic legal thrillers, is set in Lower Manhattan in 2003. It follows the life of Pattie Anwald, an attractive young public defender at the start of her career. Pattie means well and she has a good heart, but her crushing New York lifestyle eventually takes its toll on her. When a client vanishes and a mysterious villain terrorizes her, her life spirals out of control. An edgy romantic legal thriller with a twist of suspense, Pattie's Best Deal will keep readers on the edge of their seats, biting their nails in anxiety. Set against the backdrop of Lower Manhattan's streets and courtrooms around the turn of the 21st Century, "Pattie's Best Deal" follows the life of Pattie Anwald, a young urban lawyer at the start of her career. With an empathetic heart and a fighting spirit, Pattie represents marginalized members of society in New York City. She quickly develops a track record as she wins their cases, while at the same time ignoring the pressure from her own crushing lifestyle, which eventually drives her to the edge of despair. No matter what happens, Pattie never betrays her own innate values. Remaining completely incorruptible, she refuses to compromise her integrity. Dawn Dittmar, a lawyer weaves an action packed tale in the third person about another lawyer. It contains realistic courtroom drama, as it confronts deep visceral pain with adult directness. The therapeutic quality of healing truisms mixed with moments of humor hint at the possibility that all may not be lost. The intriguing cover is a collectible piece of artwork in its own right, used with the permission of its creator, New Jersey artist and print maker John Salvi . It isn't always easy for Pattie to be a public defender in a family of Law Enforcement officers. Her magnetic and charismatic boyfriend Jordan may prove to be her knight in shining armor. Her best friend Ryan is a Drama Major with a great personality and sense of humor. He cheers her up with his genuine acts of kindness and quirky pranks. Not all of the people in Pattie's life are supportive of her. Pattie's parents Edie and Chet and her brother Lou choose only to filter their philosophies from the point of view of Law Enforcement Officer. Pattie's boss Brad is looking for a way to create a vacancy in his staff, in order to hire a friend and so he directs his efforts on getting Pattie off of his staff. When he assigns her to represent Leland LeRoux, a deranged sociopathic recidivist, it adds to Pattie's stress and when Leland fixates on Pattie it nearly drives her mad.
