Archie’s No Criminal by Deb Graham

Blue-collar Archie Wilson can’t catch a break. His wife, Della, spends money they don’t have like she’s one of the la-dee-dah ladies down at the boutique—talk about gold-plated taste on a tin foil budget. Their marriage is stale, Della quit her job, and she shows more attention to her teacup poodle Smoochie-Pie than to Archie. A lesser man would turn to crime, but Archie is no criminal. When his great-aunt leaves him a small inheritance, he seizes the chance for a once-in-a-lifetime cruise vacation, hoping to rekindle Della’s love. When they come home, things will be different. Maybe even better. If only Life didn’t have such a wicked sense of humor.
