Now, it was rapidly turning into catastrophe. It had started with a mug of burned coffee.

As for how Vieira Financial had come to be such a powerhouse, how Lucas had come to be such a success at thirty-three. He had tired of being asked, so he’d finally offered a response in a recent interview. "Success," he’d said, in his somewhat husky, lightly accented voice, "success is when preparation meets opportunity |
