When her husband of thirty-two years passed away, lonely years loomed ahead. Eventually, she placed an ad on the Internet, “Hopeful Heart Looking For Honest Guy.” Mr Right, or so she thought, answered her ad. “I never thought there were women like you still out there,” he said.

His whirlwind romance put her far above cloud nine. She floated on cloud twenty. He promised to fill the remainder of her lonely days with the love she craved. She married him. 

The marriage took a heartbreaking turn on their wedding night. It finally ended when her son rescued her at gunpoint. Only later, after all the tragic events she endured, did she discover she had married a sociopath. She never knew what a sociopath was, only from the movies. She now writes, trying to warn others about the signs, large and small, to be aware of. She only hopes to spare someone else from going through the same abuse.

“Learn from the mistakes of others. You can’t live long enough to make them all yourself.”             Eleanor Roosevelt.

She has since remarried and lives in Michigan with her wonderful husband, Rick. Together they share a love for each other, family, writing, laughs, a condo, nature, and carrot cake. They spend their spare time updating their condo, trying to make it their own. When the going gets rough, they wear boxing gloves and headgear.
