Rate this book
The true story of a pharmaceutical company executive, single mother and serial love life loser who decides to change the course of her life and follow her dream to sail around the world. Spurred on by Tarot card readings and the lyrics from a Sinead O’Conner ballad, she hopes to prove her naysayers wrong. Her doubters include almost everyone she knows and often times herself. Nonetheless, she is determined to dump her comfortable life and morally dubious corporate position, to escape America and to be the person she believes she was meant to be, to have an adventure and most importantly try to have fun.

A beautifully observed, witty and uplifting story. It will make you laugh, cry and cheer out loud. A fun read for anyone looking for inspiration to change the course of their life no matter what their age.
