Read South of Bixby Bridge Storyline:

Fresh out of drug rehab.A young unemployed stockbroker, alone.Struggling to survive the holidays on the San Francisco streets.He wants his life back, he wants his girlfriend back.Then his luck turns when he runs into just the right man--A charming, sadistic hedge-fund owner with an intoxicating wife.Success, money, a second chance . . .But sometimes second chances come with a price.Sometimes the price is your soul.Destined to reach the silver screen, this fast-paced first novel by Ryan Winfield is much more than a Hollywood hit--it's a gut-wrenching and ultimately uplifting story that grabs you from the first line and won't let go. With more twists than California's Highway 1, the intimate narrative follows a young man on a wild month-long ride to the dizzying, drunken heights of Napa Valley excess and down again through a phantasmagoria of hedonistic hell. "Shocking and unapologetic." "Fast, poetic prose loaded with images." "...a Gatsbyesque story for our Recessionary times." South of Bixby Bridge is a heartfelt journey of self-discovery--the story of a young man who thinks he has nowhere to go but up, until he discovers that sometimes the "bottom" is just the beginning.With gripping drama, witty dialogue, and sexy, jaw-dropping glimpses into the underworld of California's über-rich, you won't be able to put this riveting new novel down. Buckle up and enjoy the read!
