We've Got To Stop Meeting Like This
Donna Y. Ferris
What if the path to inner peace leads to outright disaster?
Donna seems to have it all - a generous husband, two healthy kids, a Jersey shore home - but something is missing. When she signs up for yoga teacher training, her carefully cultivated life begins to crumble. Her husband is having an affair. Dangerous childhood secrets resurface. Her career goes sideways. And she doesn’t even like yoga . . . yet.
As Donna reels and heals, she discovers love, rescues dogs, and confronts yet another crisis of faith when a loved one falls ill.
A devastating but funny, life-affirming love story, We’ve Got to Stop Meeting Like This is for anyone who has ever dared to fight for what matters - and believes it’s never too late to find love or enlightenment.
But not necessarily in that order.
