The author gives us a tale of a woman dealing with what life has thrown at her- the good, bad and ugly, as well as the precious and life-affirming. There is a blend of drama and suspense mixed in with everyday life of a single mom with a preteen. Throw in a loving, supportive single fellow, the local town gossips, the sweet neighbor, and a creepy stalker and you’ve got a great mix of characters to love and hate.
