The Placeholder
Upmarket Fiction
Published as Lynda Wolters
An unconventional story of loss and love.
Fresh out of boxed wine and romantic prospects, Serenade Kincaid, a middle-aged attorney in Boise, Idaho, enlists the assistance of Zac, a for-sex-only companion, to ease her loneliness. It’s all fun and games until he gets married—and she falls ill. With the stakes high, Sera’s friend and boss, Carolyn, takes things into her own hands, only to discover that not everything is as it seems. The Placeholder is an unconventional story of friendship, loss, love, and the complicated ways we find our people when life doesn’t go according to plan.
"An unexpectedly tender story with the panache and steaminess of a romance." ~Kirkus Reviews
"...the protagonist's complexity - and the reader's response to her - make it worth a read." ~IndieReader
"...the greatness of this book cannot be touched. I rate it four out of four stars. Lynda Wolters is a phenomenal storyteller." ~Official OnlineBookClub.Org Review
I recommend this book for fans of Your Place Or Mine and Bridget Jones series. The overall theme of friendship and love is evident throughout with a true message of what really should matter. Read this one with your best friend when you are in the need for a good cry. ~Bridget Ball
