I've heard it said that you don't know what you've got until it's gone, but I'm not sure that's true.When Gabriela decides pursuing her career is more important than our marriage, I am angry with everyone--mostly myself, for all that time wasted. But truly, I don't know what I didn't have until I meet Lauren.Lauren is a hurricane, a force of nature who knows exactly what she wants, and she knows exactly how to get it. That something is me, apparently, but I don't exactly make it easy on her. I have some things to work through and it turns out she has been hiding a complicated life of her own. Yet she's the one with open arms, her heart on the line, telling me all I need to do is step up and claim her.Timing is everything and when I finally get the guts to take that step, it feels like everyone and everything conspires to steal our happiness.With new responsibilities and unanswered questions hanging over my head, it's clear I can't offer anything of myself to the woman who's wormed her way into my life. I question who I am and how I'm supposed to move forward, but I'm right back where I started.I thought I'd lost everything before I met Lauren, but it turns out I was just getting started.
