Author Description

Eileen knows she is a ticking time bomb. Breast cancer runs in her family: Her mother and grandmother both died of the disease. And yet, she's unprepared for the shock of confronting her own mortality. For help, she leans hard on her family, especially her cousin who gives Eileen an unselfish gift that leaves the entire family speechless. Eileen's certain she can teach her cancer a lesson; but cancer has some lessons in store for her. As she battles her disease, she must confront the true nature of her relationship with her less-than-loving boyfriend, she must reconcile her own cancer experiences with memories of her mother and grandmother, she must turn to God and faith more than ever before, and when an old flame reappears in her life, she might finally get her happily ever after-but only if she can find the strength to seize it for herself.
