About the Book
We all remember that person from high school. You know, the person who seemed to glide through every aspect of those years. They were popular and successful but more significantly likeable. Everyone expected they would do the same after high school. Life, though, has a way of interfering with our plans and expectations. Those circumstances take Robb Cesario from the heights of high school glory to midlife, desperately struggling to maintain family connections amid tragedy and sadness, Robb returns to his roots. He tries to find his way back to the life he and everyone else imagined for him.
