When Evan and Katie said “I do”, they expected to navigate
life together side-by-side. But when a car accident and a tawdry affair disrupt
life as they know it, Evan and Katie are forced to venture on alternate paths,
alone. In the darkest depths of an unforgiving coma, Evan fights to survive the
treacherous jungle of his mind. He embarks on a spiritual journey to understand
the meaning of life and the beauty of death…forcing him to face his deepest
fear. Meanwhile, Katie ventures through her own guilt. On a strenuous moral
journey, she juggles the consequences of infidelity and the strain of caring
for her unresponsive husband. But are their paths truly separate? Or are they
simply on parallel journeys that are destined to converge?

Book Excerpt:
Katie flagged down the waiter for another round of appletinis.
She turned off her phone to eliminate any disruption in the evening’s events.
She surveyed the room diligently, nodding in satisfaction. The bar was classy. Oak
panels stained deep red layered the floor with matching rafters up above. It
was the kind of place that lawyers and corporate business-types frequented. Tonight
it was bustling with the usual crowd. Waiters played the dodging game, weaving
in and out of groups perfectly without ever spilling a drop. As the waiter
brought the drinks to the table, Katie shifted her weight and repositioned her
legs. Whether or not she was aware of it, she moved ever-so-subtlety closer to
Dylan. Katie had never cheated on Evan before, though she had come close a few
times. Flirting and sending the wrong message to guys happened all the time
with her. It made guys take chances that crossed the line with remarks and gestures
most would consider inappropriate for a married woman. Katie desperately craved
attention. The attention of any male in the room. Tonight she had Dylan’s.

Electrical Engineering and an MBA in Technology Management.
Always eager
to challenge myself with new and different roles, I took on the role of
