CHASING HAPPINESS

Glenda Marie Romance

Faced with immense humiliation, her parents whisked her away to New York to start anew. There, Ashley pursued education, rebuilding her life, eventually becoming a renowned interior decorator. She found tranquility, until one day, the shadows of her past resurface, disrupting her peaceful existence.
Will she find it within herself to forgive the person who shattered her identity and dreams?
