Moolah and Moonshine

Rust. Cabbage. A vague sour odor of spoiled milk. No, that's not the smell of the dumpster behind Sweets to the Sweet—it's Emmett Russo's horrible house. Everyone told him a home was a great investment, but the market went bad, he discovered a bunch of hidden problems, and now he owes more on his mortgage than the old Kansas farmhouse is worth. If that's not bad enough, his best friend Rosemary just landed a fabulous new job…in Paris. The Paris. And Emmett doesn't know if he can face his horrible house without her. Emmett longs to jaunt away with Rosemary, but how can he fly with his albatross of a house dragging him down? Enter tall, strapping Sam Kowalski, who's rumored to be "good with his hands." Emmett's not accustomed to airing his stinky secrets to just anybody, but Sam seems determined to help him out…and together they discover there's far more hidden in Emmett's horrible house than a bunch of weird smells.
