Veronica's Diary III, Awakening the Woman Within

Like its predecessors, The Journey of Innocence and Braving a New World, Awakening the Woman Within has been translated from the original Portuguese journals Veronica kept throughout her life.

Veronica’s philosophy is very clear; there is a time in our lives that we either accept life as it is, or we continue to go forward. She never stops giving but she is no longer afraid of taking. After thirty years of marriage she finds the courage to ask for a divorce. Chronologically she is 47 years old but physiologically she is a youthful college student with a new career in mind. While Steve, her younger son, gets married, Ralph, her older son, quits his job as an engineer to attend Chiropractic College with her.

Veronica becomes an eager student of life, school, and romance. Dating is something she never experienced before getting married and she embraces it wholeheartedly. Soon she learns that her lovers do not fit the role model of the romance novels she used to read as a young girl, but instead of giving up, she is on a path of discovery like a relentless pioneer facing the unknown, yet still expecting a world of possibilities.
