About the Book

At twenty-four, Dawn was stuck in a toxic relationship quietly praying for something more. Pat was on work release from prison, charming, gentle, and nothing like what anyone would have chosen for her. Nobody believed it would work. The odds were against them. It wasn't supposed to last... but it did.

This memoir is for every woman who has ever felt stuck, overlooked, or afraid to choose herself. 

It is a story of faith, healing, and the extraordinary power of believing in someone, and in yourself.
