Chapter Excerpts
“
My husband and I looked good as a couple. Double income. No kids. A gold Mercedes. On a five-day trip to Kowloon, we spent over $25,000 just shopping. I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. Oh Shit! What am I doing? A sickening feeling. My soul looking at me, “We're not on track.” I was on course for starting over.
“
I woke up and exclaimed, “I have ambition!” It was fricking stunning. I never had a sense of drive. My only goal was to marry. Here I was, in a cottage in Honolulu, my whole body vibrating with ambition. I mean FULL UP with it.
“
It happened in a heartbeat. I got the call. “Daddy’s not breathing.” I called my husband and reminded him that if anything happened to Jeb we were legal guardians to the children. At the scene I asked the EMT, “How’s he doing?” He said, “We did everything we could.” My life was forever changed.
