The Perfect Life

The Perfect Life

I had the perfect life. <br /> <br />The perfect husband. <br />Colin Cassidy—the incredibly talented, extremely gorgeous, and unbelievably humble star NFL quarterback. <br /> <br />The perfect career. <br />As the recently-appointed executive director for the Boston chapter of Mending Hearts, a child abuse prevention and treatment program, my daily reward was helping to keep vulnerable, innocent children from being preyed upon and destroyed. It’s all I’d wanted to do since I was a teenager. <br /> <br />Perfect city. Perfect car. Perfect house with the perfect view. <br /> <br />From the outside looking in, it was impossible to find a single flaw in my life. I had it all. Everything I’d ever wanted. <br /> <br />But that kind of perfection came at a price. <br />Demanded the ultimate sacrifice. <br /> <br />What happened when I discovered what I’d been missing all along? <br />When I began to question if the lies were worth protecting? <br /> <br />What if suddenly the last thing I wanted was to be perfect? <br />
