But the deadly and mysterious Pink Wave appears and changes their lives forever.

As the pink foam tongue alters the path of thousands of lives, can Richard tame Joan’s sharp and flippant tongue?

And in the end, who wins?

Enjoyable read. Well developed characters and relationships among them. Lots of emotions not always good. Good reality and background that adds to the story. Pleasurable short story.

I really liked the characters, and the way this book was written, but the ending was too confusing for me.
