Divorce isn't the ending. It's the long-awaited opening of the second act.
Love found at the lowest point in life is like a rose blooming in the ruins.
Together, we grow new roots out of the mud, turning all the storms of the first half of our lives into the price of admission for this encounter.
May we bloom boldly and grow wildly, honoring both the storms behind us and the winds that carry us forward.
"I've seen the view from the summit, so I know it belongs to me. There's more than one mountain in life. Going downhill now just means I'll climb another one." -- Skye Wilde

1. This should be a novella.
2. I've never known anyone like the heroine, so I'm a little worried I won't write her well.
3. The heroine is a free-spirited breeze. She chooses to leave behind every career path herself.
She's incredibly capable: she excels at academics and sports, and she's highly driven. She's willing to try anything that interests her and is full of vitality.
Her life motto: "The value of life lies in the experiences it brings."
4. Kaka meets her during a low point: injuries, divorce, depression, a transfer, and the end of his career.
Theme: You have to love yourself before you can love others
