SynopsisThis book is more than a successful love story of an attorney who fell in love, married and had a child with a man serving twenty-five years to life in prison. It is the journey of a lawyer who, against all odds, not only fought to protect the civil rights of men and women in New York City jails and New York State prisons but also a prison wife who fights the system as a visitor. Along the way, she faces hurdles and somehow always manages to come out on top. You will laugh and you will cry as you read about her life which includes being the ninth of ten children that never felt loved by her parents, joining the Army Reserve for a part-time job "that wasn't worth it" to partying with her and her siblings on Rockaway Beach and fighting drug dealers in her apartment building.
