What Once Was - Taylor, Chris

. .

Résumé :
Ridley Halep was living the American Dream, a beautiful wife, two promising girls, and the financial stability that any family desires. Then a tragedy hit that turned Ridley's life upside down. He found himself facing challenges that many people couldn't understand. Unsure of what to do next, Ridley decided to hit the road and work towards answering the many questions that were piling up. His spontaneous new nature takes him on a cross country adventure that leads him to build new relationships and connect with the life that he was now faced with. Along the way, Ridley meets a troubled, but a hilariously lovable and energetic independent writer who convinces him to capture his story to not only benefit himself but for others as well. Their friendship and reckless chemistry cause them to test their limits while figuring out what their next step in life should be. Anyone will enjoy this fun-hearted, yet emotionally gripping novel that takes the reader on an adventure through beautiful communities along the east coast from as far south as Florida all the way up to Maine and beyond. The characters in the book will remind readers of people they have known during their own adventures in life, making it irresistible to put down....
