And Then I Danced in a Yellow Dress

Forty-something Beverly Brown, who feels as common as hername, embarks on an insightful, and often humorous journey ofself-discovery. Along the way she meets Grant, a paraplegic FrenchCanadian, who relights her passion for music and helps her discoverthings she never realized about herself. But they both know rightfrom the get-go that they only have six weeks before he moves backto Montreal, and he does not believe in long distance relationships. Isit worth the risk to open up her heart again knowing it will soon bebroken? Or can she make him change his mind?Theres also Jack, the part-time judge she works with. There is a bitof sexual tension in their friendly relationship that Bev tries hard toignore. Now Jack has offered her a job in his law firm in the city. Itsounds exciting, but also seems a bit more change than she is ready tomake. Throw in her needy adult children, her narrow minded familyand her manipulative ex-husband and it is easy to see how Bev haslocked herself away in her self-made cocoon for so long. This is not a romance, but there is love. It is not religious, but thereis spiritual confl ict. It is not a comedy, though there is humor. Itis, however, a life changing story of confronting guilt, regret, andunfulfilled dreams, and rediscovering passion and hope for a purposefilled future.
