Leaving for a Dream

Marian Elizabeth Morrison is a good girl, a tough girl, the kind of girl you don't have to worry about--except when it comes to love.
From her Irish Catholic school days to her dedicated years as an officer of the court, Marian seemed like she had it all figured out. She was beautiful, smart and loved by her family and friends, but she just couldn't seem to make romance stick. All she wanted was the kind of love her grandparents and parents shared. Was she too independent, too tough? Or had she just forgotten how to listen to her own heart?
Marian must learn how to become her own woman. She knows what her mother expects of her, what her friends want for her, and what her lovers want from her, but what--or who--does she want for herself? In the end, Marian must decide what she truly desires and what she's willing to risk to keep it.
