Good Intentions. A Novel
What does it mean to live a good life—if it isn’t your own?
In 1980s Kansas City, Tom Rudnik is determined to do everything right: build a successful legal career, marry the woman he loves, and create the kind of family his upbringing demands. But beneath that carefully constructed life lies a hidden truth.
As Tom’s ambitions carry him to Washington, D.C., he’s forced on a journey that fractures everything he’s built. A marriage shaped by love and denial starts to unravel, and the ensuing events put his career, his reputation, and his relationship with his young son at risk.
Set against a shifting cultural landscape, Good Intentions is a deeply human story of identity, desire, and the cost of living between two selves—where the path to honesty may mean losing everything, or finally becoming whole.
