title: This Too Shall Pass
author: Roberts, Cynthia
description: Alana Waverly, is a strong, professional woman, who finds herself a victim of a failing economy. She is complex, because her struggle is evident in every circumstance she is forced to face. When we first meet her, she is at the lowest point in her life. Rather than being saved by outside influences, she rallies from a multitude of situations most people could never endure, or will face in a lifetime. Slowly, she perseveres these unfortunate events and; she realizes her full potential, because her struggles and her ability to overcome them, comes from deep within. Fate brings Dylan Clayburn into her life, quite by accident and at the worse time possible. He is drawn to the beauty, who lives in his apartment building. Every time their paths cross, he is attracted to her like a moth to a flame, despite her constant indifference towards him. Dylan is an accomplished business man. He is also a patient man, who loves a challenge and uses his charms from the very beginning of their introduction to slowly chip away at her hard reserve. This Too Shall Pass emulates how life can be an assaulting hardship and an inspirational drama of love, optimism, inner-strength, and hopefulness.
