The programmed life of Joey, a hot-shot movie agent in New York's fast lane, is turned topsy-turby by a series of unexpected events which culminates in a serendipitous romance with a thoroughly remarkable young Jamaican woman.

Joey Breaker is a fast-talking, ambitious, workaholic agent representing actors, screenwriters, and comedians for the New York firm of Morgan Creative. He is callous and intolerant, but when he unexpectedly falls in love, he begins to see that he has been missing much of what is important in life. His demeanor mellows and he learns to be more tolerant of others. Suddenly, he is faced with a difficult choice when his girlfriend graduates from nursing school and returns to Jamaica.—Tad Dibbern <[email protected]>

Joey is a player, a hot-shot movie agent in New York. If a deal can be made, he'll make it. If a rising talent can be snapped up, he'll be first in line. And when it comes to luring Hollywood in a bidding war for a script nobody's read, Joey's your man. Joey's definitely cruising in the fast lane. But there's one thing Joey has never taken the time to do: live. Joey's programmed life is turned topsy-turby by a series of unexpected events which culminates in a serendipitous romance with a thoroughly remarkable young Jamaican woman. Featuring the soundtrack rhythms of Bob Marley and loaded with feel-good insight, 'Joey Breaker' is a winner.
