<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n\n\nI received a copy of this book from the author for an honest review.
\nThis book!! The triangle \u2026.2 men and 1 woman\u2026\u2026Faith and Eli\u2026.the relationship is amazing but Eli and his addictions ruined it. I mean how long can you hold on to someone who can\u2019t help themselves???
\nMax\u2026.he has loved Faith for as long as he can remember. She is Eli\u2019s so he stays away. He is the carefree never going to settle down guy. He is drinking and having a different woman every night. He has given up on having the one woman he wants but when he finds out Faith is no longer with Eli\u2026.he has hope. The two form a loving relationship. No its not the same kind she has with her first love but first love is always harder to get over. First love always burns brighter and with more passions but that doesn\u2019t mean that the first love is the better love to keep once it has returned.
\nThis book is a but rough at times. The alcoholism was not at all glossed over. Faith and her enabling ways was not glossed over. The abuse and all that comes with addiction are hit head on. If these are touchy subjects areas for you, I think you may want to really consider if this is a book for you or if you should pass.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\u00a0<\/a><\/div>\nI was born in Overland Park, KS, in the heart of Tornado Alley, and my life has been a bit twisted since. Actually, it\u2019s not all that twisted, but I\u2019ve always wanted to use that line. I grew up in St. Louis, MO, went to school at the University of Missouri-Columbia, and moved to Bloomington, IL, fresh out of college, after my husband got a job at State Farm\u2019s corporate headquarters. I\u2019ve worked as a high school\/junior college teacher, personnel recruiter, office manager of a jewelry store, and, for the past ten years, as a lunch lady. I like to karaoke and attend rock concerts. I am actively involved at church and spend too much time on Facebook. I am the mother of a eighteen-year-old, and sixteen-year-old triplets, and have been married to my husband, Don, for over twenty-four years.
\nI have been a writer all my life. My first book, which was co-written with Mary Ellen Murphey in second grade, was titled The Black Cat, and was written on blue hotel stationary, hole-punched, and bound by white yarn. I believe it is currently out of circulation.
\nWhen I turned forty, I had an epiphany of sorts. I realized those bigwig publishing houses in New York were now probably run by people younger than me, so I shouldn\u2019t be intimidated by them. At about the same time I was watching one of those award shows, and Jaclyn Smith got up to give a post-humorous award to Aaron Spelling. She credited him for encouraging her to go into acting, saying something brilliant like, \u201cReach for your dreams.\u201d Nothing new. Almost even seems a little Jiminy Cricketish. But, for some reason, it struck me that night. When Aaron Spelling was thirteen, he was probably just like any other acned thirteen-year-old. But he worked to achieve his dreams, and became a household name. So, I began to write. Once I finished my first book, I wasn\u2019t able to stop. I would rather write than do just about anything else. After all, you get to make people (characters) do what you want and design your own happy endings. What power! What a privilege.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
