Summary:
For Carrie Destin, a biracial military brat growing up around the world, home is never where you left it.

Im still marveling at what an impressive and enjoyable book this is, and Im looking forward to reading anything by Grindstaff that I can get my hands on. ...most highly recommended. ~Readers Favorite Book Reviews
Carrie accelerates her life and sets aggressive goals: college, connecting with her Japanese roots, and the all-consuming desire to find her soul mate.
As she outlives the original prognosis into her early twenties, Carries frantic desire to experience life before it ends spirals out of control, leading to a physical and emotional collapse. Her grandmothers wisdom points her toward acceptance, but first she must break through her walls before she can give the gift of til-death-do-us-part.
The ending was not what I expected, and I put the book down still in tears. This is a beautiful book and I cant recommend it highly enough. Any book that has me laughing out loud one minute and in tears the next (on public transportation no less!) is a must read. ~Tamra Reynolds
