In Sneider’s gripping sequel to the Feldman Family Saga, emotions surge and the stakes soar even higher as Amy relentlessly seeks happiness. Amy Feldman persuades her husband Josh to accept a senior position at Missouri Atlantic Group despite her reservations. As the company faces challenges amid industry shifts, Josh immerses himself in his work, leaving Amy feeling neglected. However, a transformative experience aboard the “Hope and Change Express” to President Barack Obama’s inauguration ignites Amy’s passion for activism. She embraces her newfound purpose, catching the eye of a prominent NGO in Chicago. Now, it’s Josh who feels sidelined by Amy’s newfound commitment.

The story unfolds against a backdrop of diverse settings, each shaping the characters’ journeys and the overarching narrative. From the vibrant urban landscape of Chicago, where Amy and Allison navigate their lives, to the corporate world of Dynamic Industrials and the ethical dilemmas it poses, the novel explores themes of power and social responsibility. Amy undergoes a compelling journey of self-discovery and resilience, navigating complex relationships and challenging circumstances with grace and determination. Through the characters of Amy, Josh, Chip, Jenn, and others, Sneider explores how external pressures, personal ambitions, and misunderstandings can strain marital bonds, and how seemingly small decisions can have far-reaching effects, unraveling layers of emotional, psychological, and interpersonal fallout. A stunner.
