If a New Jersey mom needs to break loose from the suburbs, where can she go? Nancy A. Palmer relates her adventures and journey across the country in an exciting, unusual memoir that captures a roller-coaster life in Europe and America. Filled with humor, sadness, success, and disappointment, Nancy's story is inspirational. Swept into a hedonistic lifestyle as a New Jersey teenager studying in Paris, France, she dates international millionaires on the French Riviera, gambles with billionaires in Monte Carlo, finds herself starring in an Italian movie, and eventually returns home to marry and settle down. After twelve years and three children and working as a model and actress, Nancy divorces. She continues her career, appearing in Playboy, and acting in television shows, soap operas, and movies. Despite her success she cannot set aside her difficult childhood with an alcoholic mother, and later with an abusive husband. Determined to leave her sad memories behind and find a new life, Nancy and her children escape from New Jersey and embark on a cross-country trek to the West Coast. They find their perfect place in Laguna Beach, and she opens a stand up paddle boarding business. She soon finds her perfect soulmate, a highly-successful Laguna Beach attorney and prominent citizen until tragedy strikes.
