“Both books were excellent Alex, are you going to write a 3rd? If you do (which you should) you’ll have to put me down for a copy, I want to know what your leading lady is doing now.”  – Laura Knapp   “I got the book yesterday after work and finished it before bedtime.  I couldn’t put it down.  BRAVO!  What a fun read!” – Kelly Stone “I really enjoyed the Chatroom to Bedroom series and especially liked Rochester, New York.” – Kevin Klepek

The Story

Two weeks prior to the unfathomable tragedy of 9/11, a group of M.B.A. students embark on a two year journey to Rochester, New York, all in the hopes of pursuing an education that will lead them straight to the boardroom with a six-figure plus bonus salary. Women represent a fraction of the student body and quickly learn that for all the progress of the past fifty years, some things never change: sex and money drive the human ego to achieve the impossible, all obstacles be damned.

The Characters

Rebecca, the central character of the book, arrives in Rochester with big dreams, big hopes and a big heart. With little understanding of the real opportunity cost of her desired success she begins to shed her kind skin and, as her focus on the prize compounds, men begin to look like nothing more than tradable commodities.

Julie, Rebecca’s friend, confidant and classmate, experiences her own struggle in business school, as she tries her hardest to balance the pressures of a full time M.B.A., local Eastern European parents and the planning of her forthcoming wedding. Doing her best to put on a happy smile to the rest of the world while feeling torn inside, Julie continues to navigate her own path on an already crowded street.

David, Rebecca’s multi-lingual part brother, part friend, educates anyone around him who will listen on global music, foreign film, Middle East politics and international sports. With an insatiable zest for life matched only by his passion for people, David begins to make Rebecca question her own personal choices.

With an additional cast of characters spanning the globe in thier heritage, strength and history, the M.B.A. students begin to pull together as a family, break each other’s hearts and tap deep within themselves to make sense of the quickly changing and uncertain world around them.
