A cautionary tale, with a redeeming outcome. A novel about loss and freedom, acceptance and self-discovery—a personal growth journey between relationships.

A marriage ends. A life begins. In between is Charlie's story of our journey home, breath by breath. His canvas is a life cracked open, to reveal the cost of freedom and the power of love.

Chasing Utopia—from community, to relationship, to success itself—Charlie loses all, then finds himself torn between two new loves. Does he need to heal first in order to love, or does he need love in order to heal?
