Blown Away (Unabridged‪)‬

Don't judge a book by its cover! Nothing, and no one, is ever what they seem. Ellen Christenson escapes from an abusive life, but does one ever escape the scars that are left on their soul?  

One must move on, one must try. But life has a tendency to circle back to what one once knew, and one finds that her life choices bring her back to the scenes of her abuse to deal with it finally and fully, in ways she had never thought she would. It is then that the healing can begin, as she repairs her soul and the people she has devastated along the way. 

Ellen hadn't intended to end up in Silicon Valley and its high-tech world, but due to life and its circumstances, she finds herself the head of a startup tech company. Cool, calculating, efficient, she shows the world a side of her that she doesn't have, and few if any know the real Ellen.  

Nearby San Francisco provides her with plenty of girlfriends. That elusive one, that soulmate, she has a hard time recognizing due to the scars within. For years, she has lived with her decision of letting someone die for their sins, and Ellen is blown away by the feelings and emotions she has bottled up for so long.
