Everyone has a story to tell and scars that don't heal.

A young, idealistic teen leaves a small town and abusive father behind to join the navy in a refreshingly down-to-earth memoir of one woman's journey of self-discovery. She embraces life with passion and courage, from training and partying with Navy SEALs to skydiving and joining the police force, but when tragic events while serving her country lead to years of nightmares, depression, and PTSD, she must learn to navigate life through the heartache and tears until the laughter and love return.

Donna reads us her own story about her experiences in the military and as a First Responder. Her voice is very pleasant and her writing is authentic. She relays both her humorous and tragic moments in career paths that are often structured to fail and even attack women. Along the way, she enlightens us, entertains us, and gives us pause for thought.
As a female veteran, I can testify to the veracity of her writing without dramatizing the poignancy of her memoir. Great story, great voice!

A genuine story of women in military/FR service.
