Description: "On the eve of her 50th birthday, a southern woman who seemingly has it all -- husband, children, career and BMW convertible -- sets out on a journey that takes her from North Carolina to Italy to the rain forest highlands of Panama. Can she find the courage to risk everthing for the life and love she has always wanted? Seeking both adventure and opportunity in the second half of life, she said "good-bye" to the comfort of her familiar Blue Ridge mountains, and "hello" to the exotic, remote mountains of Panama. She did not know that in the process she would finally become the woman she had always wanted to be. More than a simple coming out story, it is a true tale of adventure, expatriation, betrayal, and discovering a surprising love in the most unexpected place. Best enjoyed with a great cup of coffee!" -- P. [4] of cover.
