Description

---

The short stories in this collection explore the personal journeys of women and the men they love and release. They follow women who take large risks, travel alone, and love solitary men, yet remain open, feminine, and vulnerable despite sorrow and betrayal. Thoughtful and tender, the stories illustrate what women experience as they carry their crosses from station to station.
