The following is the publisher's description of the book
from the web site of Publish America (www.publishamerica.com)
"Determined to spread her wings, Shelly, an only child,
forfeits the warm comfort of her nurturing father to escape
the icy demands of her domineering mother. She enlists in
the Navy, planning to see the world, but immediately falls
for a charming Southerner. She becomes ensnared in his possessive
web while continuing to struggle to maintain her own identity.
She finds solace in his family of origin, whose endearing
members offer her the closeness and security she missed in
her childhood. Once settled into her apartment in Norfolk,
Virginia, her new friend and neighbor, Amanda, brings a dimension
of depth to her life that Shelly embraces. She embarks on
a colorful journey that leads her to lifelong friendships,
traumatic losses, and unexpected love."
