All she ever wanted in life was a little house with a white picket fence, four kids, and to live happily ever after. She married her childhood sweetheart at age nineteen, three weeks before he was to leave for Vietnam. This book takes the reader down Lucyndas long and very rocky journey of divorce, raising a child with his own personal challenges, coming very close to committing suicide, the bar scene, and many very bad choices in men. Then on to a second marriage that also fails, but not until after encountering a stepchild with many emotional problems, an extremely volatile relationship of being emotionally and sexually abused; to finally experiencing personal growth, peace, and a relationship with God. This book will make you cry, make you laugh, and hopefully help you to realize that you dont have to stay in a bad relationship; that there is hope for anyone who thinks they cant get out; and that you will hopefully learn from her mistakes.
