Description
In this dark, suspenseful and somewhat comical look at one man's desires, Remote Control, a novelette by bestselling author Cheryl Kaye Tardif delivers a strong message: Be careful what you wish for!
Meet Harold Fielding--plumber by part of the day, slacker/tv addict the rest of the day and night. Harry believes that fame and fortune will come to him if he wishes hard enough. God forbid if he should actually work for it.
Beatrice Fielding is Harry's hardworking wife. She holds down multiple jobs so her husband can laze about on his recliner, eating popcorn and drinking cola while watching his favorite shows. She has many wishes--some aren't so nice.

However, she does have one final children's book she plans to publish next year.Booklist raves, "Tardif, already a big hit in Canada…a name to reckon with south of the border."Cheryl's website: http://www.cherylktardif.com Official blog: http://www.cherylktardif.blogspot.com Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/cherylktardif Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Cheryl-Kaye-Tardif-novels/29769736630 You can also find Cheryl Kaye Tardif on Goodreads, Shelfari and LibraryThing, plus other social networks.
