Karen and Mark have been together for 10 years and married for 5. She thought they were going to grow old together. Spend the rest of their lives together. When she finds out what has been going on behind her back, she knows that it's over. There is no way to fix it. There is no way she can trust him and no way she could ever be happy with him again.
Karen has to figure out how to live without Mark. She leans on friends and band mates to help her get back on her feet. Her life from then on out is a crazy roller coaster and she realizes who is most important in her life.
Stay tuned to find out!
-Side note: Each chapter is going to have a lyric from the Little Big Town song "A Place to Land" that fits with that part of the story. The book is going to sort of be based off the song. I interpret the song as being about someone who has been burned a few too many times by love and is learning how to trust people again. They are just trying to find a place to land. So if you haven't heard it, give it a listen.
