In 1994, I fell in love with the man of my dreams. I was only 16 years old, but I wanted to marry him. He became my husband, and we had three beautiful children together. It was the most passionate affair of my life. But as with all great love stories, there was a twist. One day, I came home to an empty house. All of their belongings were still there, but my husband and children were not. What followed was a ferocious two-year court battle and an ungovernable love and passion that overthrew all obstacles. ''Beyond the legalese and ceremonial trappings of marriage and divorce, a captivating, realistic description of the heroic efforts of a woman to stay open to her lover's possible return. The book straightforwardly describes the ability of love to surpass all the darkness of a combative divorce,'' Gabriel Ybarra, Ph.D., University of North Florida.
