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."
