Author of Love with a Chance of Drowning

This book is one part Hero’s Journey and two parts love story; an alchemy of high adventure and keen insights that will take your breath away and expand your capacity to love. Empowering, entertaining, and most of all inspiring. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I know you will too.
