Peace in Love and Work A Wish, a Year, a Story

D.M. Anderson tells the story of how going all in for a year allowed her to create the peace that we all seek in love and in work - and how you can too. After a lifetime of jobs and relationships that never quite fit, Dee finds herself with no job, no partner, and no confidence. Desperate, she makes a wish on a shooting star streaking across the highway. "I wish for peace in love and work" are the words that come to change her life. Motivated by the now or never of a milestone birthday, Dee leaves a steady paycheck and unsteady relationship. As a member of the generation that will never grow up - or grow old - she flashes back to memories along the way to make sense of how she got there and how to get out. Dee writes with honesty, humor and wisdom about her year of online dating, whirlwind romance, making out in cars, HIV test kits, and drunken temper tantrums. She chronicles the crazy days and sleepless nights of carving out a new professional identity. She recounts how the emergence of her new relationship with faith leads to a new understanding of passion and purpose. Ultimately, she moves beyond her fears to do what she had been unable to do in the past. Love, trust and respect herself. Romantic, spiritual, heart wrenching, Peace in Love and Work promises to inspire and motivate.
