What Was and Might Have Been


Book Description

From a USA Today Bestselling Author, originally titled BY SUMMER’S END, this story is quietly Pamela Morsi’s finest. We’ve all wondered. How would things have turned out if… If I hadn’t taken that job? If I hadn’t been sick that day? If the traffic light had been green? How different would the future have been without that one event in the past? Dawn Leland leads an ordinary life. A life with courage and brilliance as well as mistakes and baggage. Having grown up in Tennessee’s Foster Care system, she is short on trust and slow to share. But she falls in love and that changes everything. Or does it? In parallel stories we see two very different directions, two different versions of the life journey. Through the eyes of her daughter, thirteen-year-old, Dakota, we see the real life roads her mother has traversed. And with the narration of Dawn’s beloved husband, Sonny, we glimpse a full measure of what might have been.
