Excerpt from Chapter 1:
The end of summer had crept upon the small town of Eureka and the time was finally here for Toni and Melanie to hit the road for Seattle. Toni took a job as an analyst in a large technology firm in a suburb outside of Seattle. Melanie had lived most of her life in Eureka, a small town in California. The thought of moving to the city scared her and she did not want to leave. It was late afternoon when Toni loaded the last of their things into the car and directed the movers where to take the furniture when they arrived in Seattle. Melanie could not hold back the tears as she looked back walking away from the house that sheltered her growing up. Just the thought of leaving her friends behind lingered to Melanie as Toni started the car and they drove down the road out of town.
