The last time I checked, the definition for vacation is rest from work. So that’s what I’m doing from here on out.

Millicent Green wants to get away. Working as a project coordinator organizing events is highly demanding, especially since she’s the first person called on whenever a colleague can’t fulfill their job duties. And when she’s not working, she’s busy with family: serving as an emotional dumping ground for her sister who needs to vent about her unfulfilling marriage, and helping her brother as he struggles to get on his feet after time in prison.

She’s planned a cruise to Mexico for some much-needed R&R and to celebrate the recent purchase of her Midtown home. Aboard the fancy cruise ship she finally gets the solitude she craves, but only if she can quiet her mind long enough and truly give in to the fun, sun, and sea.
