A heartwarming childrenโ€™s book illustration of a baby sea turtle on the sandy ocean floor. The turtle has big, soulful brown eyes and a soft smile. Sunlight beams pierce through the teal water, illuminating the golden sand and two vibrant red starfish. The scene is calm and whimsical, featuring a soft color palette of greens, blues, and warm yellows.

A photo of a toy dog that belongs to one of my kids. Obviously, blood splashes added digitally. The name was changed but the real Doggem is still a treasured member of the family : )

โ€œYouโ€™re right. Better make it three. Youโ€™re too good a saleswoman. Even without the cheat sheet. Which begs the question: How does someone who professes not to know wine work for a winery?โ€
โ€œThatโ€™s a long, complicated story. Too long for a few sips of wine. Or coffee. Hell, Iโ€™m not even sure a three-course meal would suffice.โ€ Becca froze. Eyes wide as her hands hovered over bottles. โ€œThat wasnโ€™t me begging for an invitation or anything. Not that you thought such a silly thing. Or would ever thinkโ€ฆโ€ Becca snapped her lips shut. Avoided his twinkling eyes by assessing the progress of the three women. Now closer than she liked. With more make-up and hands that flattened flyaway strands. Their hungry look reminiscent of the wolf at grandmaโ€™s house.
โ€œAnd if I did?โ€
โ€œWhat?โ€
The man followed Beccaโ€™s frantic glance. His head snapped forward. His body straightened and angled more towards Becca and away from the womenโ€™s eager glances. The openness, the calmness disappeared like wine at an awkward Christmas party.

She thought success meant control. After a public breakup and a failed business dream, Elizabeth must face the fear sheโ€™s buried or lose the future sheโ€™s worked for. Letting go of control might be the only way to rebuild on her own terms.

Sisterhood is her anchor. Secrets are her undoing.
As the truth resurfaces, Elizabeth risks losing the only women who truly see her. To keep their trust and her own sanity, she must tell the story sheโ€™s silenced for years, even if it changes everything.

She built a career on lists, plans, and perfection. But when heartbreak unearths old trauma, Elizabeth must choose: confront the memory sheโ€™s buried or spend the rest of her life performing the version of herself everyone expects.

Becoming Liz as a meme:

Liz in Chapter One: โ€œIโ€™ve got everything handled.โ€

Narrator: She did not, in fact, have everything handled.

A close-up portrait of a Black woman with natural curly hair framing her face. She has smooth brown skin, glossy lips, and expressive dark eyes enhanced with eyeliner and long lashes. Her expression is calm but slightly guarded, suggesting quiet strength and resilience.

Elizabeth Rutland looks like she has it allโ€”power suit, planner, big dreams, and shoulder pads to match. What you donโ€™t see: the nightmares she runs from, the secrets she buries, and the heart sheโ€™s not sure she can trust. #DVparty #WF #A #MH
