Through all the years women have been underestimated in all of society's areas. But what happens when a strong woman, raised by a military father, who came from a military family, takes on the world. Having no one since the tender age of seventeen and a sister to raise, she fell into the only life that suited her, one that allowed her to give her sister and grandmother a place to go. That strong woman went into the Air Force, and created a life there, a life her father would be proud of. Her sister, Maggie, could live in peace and where her grandma, Lillian, raised her without money problems. Sending money and staying in touch with them, while also serving her country all over the globe is what that strong woman needed to keep going through life's pains. Her name was Cathryne. This is the story of how, after everything that happened in her life, she found something that made her see that she wasn't just a soldier, but also a human who needs love to in her life.
