Melani is born in the arms of forbidden love that haunts her very
existence long after leaving S. Korea. D. K. Christi writes in first
person, present, with Melani narrating her own life's adventure with all its agony
and ecstasy, expressed through the tears of youth to the assignation of her
senior years. Melani has a dream. She does everything right
only for it all to turn out wrong. She learns that while she is
planning for something different, life happens. Melani lives life on
the edge, abandoned in a German blizzard, trapped in an Iraqi airport without
a visa, and facing raging seas aboard the 67 foot yacht, Obsession. She
is driven to fill the void in her soul, a restless life without roots,
fleeing her humble beginnings for a pot of gold at the end of the
rainbow. On the way, she finds the rain. She travels and works in
Europe, Asia and the Caribbean, described in detail so vivid the reader will
look for the passport stamps. She also travels from one end of the
United States to the other, living in the diverse cultures of the
U.S.A. The reader may experience their own Adventure of a Lifetime
through Melani. Welcome aboard
