Living in Overtime: A Novel

Selina and Sam are both in relationship crisis when their chance meeting changes everything. Bucking all convention and odds for success, they agree to embark on a limited-time journey of mutual self-discovery in a quaint Cape Cod village. Uncertainty about relationships, long-suppressed past traumas, and a seemingly unbeatable age gap, all ooze to the surface as they attempt to find meaning and purpose in their lives. Bolstered by each other, an eclectic group of new friends, and the culture of coastal New England, they step away from their previous unexamined lives and navigate a stormy passage which smashes entrenched ideas of life, love, and connection with others, and ultimately leads them to an evolved and engaged place. This is a story of loss, life and love. It challenges the reader to reconsider stereotypes, and be open to new ways of viewing life’s losses and gifts. It is a charming, but gut-wrenching story of the power of, and our essential need for, authentic and mindful human connection.
