New Shoes for Old

Book Description: Cast aside, Laura Olson feels rejected like a pair of old shoes discarded for new ones when her husband of thirty-two years walks out on her for his young secretary. She tries to salvage her thirty-two year marriage. Eight months after a painful divorce, Laura moves on with her life. She strives to overcome the feelings of rejection, abandonment, and doormat mentality. Acceptance replaces those emotions as three men pursue her. She no longer allows anyone to manipulate or control her, not even her daughter, whose respect she earns. She loses her best friends, Jim and Betty, to cancer. She turns situations into God instances as she follows His direction and trades old shoes and habits for new ones.
