I am writing to introduce you to For Pete's Sake, an 90,000-word story of an unexpected encounter that unfolds into unexpected love.

You will meet Pete a few days after I did. As our relationship excitingly takes root, another love enters and creates an inspiring love triangle. I introduce them both to you with the sincerest of words, lifted and flowing from the unknown and newly found depths of my spirit.

Get to know them both as they share the stage of my days and nights, opening and exposing what lies within the heart of my heart and the heart of my soul.

This is not a "witness from the ashes" diary. It is a witness of beautiful truth and a "take your breath away" love that is in all of us and so very worth the journey, be it short or long. A witness to learning, waiting, loving, living, and dying and happily ever after.

The gift of crafting these words comes from my dad, and as you read this book, you will learn more about me and the divine intervention that has blessedly nudged me to pursue publication. I look forward to your feedback and input on making this shareable and memorable to all the hearts that turn these pages.
