Description
At fifteen, Carter Taylor Seaton’s halcyon childhood ended when she became pregnant. Her mother said it broke her father’s heart but as readers will soon realize, the relationship that was most impacted was the one with her mother. As Seaton relates her life’s stories, we see a girl determined to both achieve her childhood dreams and to regain her mother’s approval. Love, divorce, the struggles of raising children in the 1970s, the death of her brother, her best friend, and her son, constitute a wild ride through a life of tribulations. Yet, through an accidental career and the determined reinvention of herself, she finds joy right alongside the woe.
