We have two choices. We can grow up. Or we can self-destruct.
Kate is a senior in high school. She is beautiful, smart, and the second highest point scorer on the lacrosse team. She also drinks too much- mostly to distract herself from her eating disorder, how much she hates her mom, and the fact that she can’t stop hooking up with the wrong guy.
Dawn is a young forty-something who neither looks nor feels her age. She is a sexy, liberated professional who has always lived by her own rules. Unfortunately, her insistence on personal freedom has left her with a few regrets, one of which is that she is estranged from her family. But she doesn't worry about it much... until she finds out she doesn’t have another forty years to make amends. The doctor says she’ll be lucky if she lives another six months.
Both of these women are dying inside a little more every day.
Until fate brings them together.
This inspiring coming of age story follows the journey of two strong women who are determined not only to survive the darkness inside them, but to thrive in spite of it. It contains mature themes and language that may be too raw for delicate readers.
