Synopsis:
Amy Landry is your average, run-of-the-mill, self-professed hippie waitress. Living out her existence in Spokane, Washington, she strives to reach financial stability in the hopes of pursuing her art full time. Working for a boss who couldn’t be more her opposite, she struggles toward her goal.
Her plans change when an adversary has a near death experience on the floor in her section and is whisked away by a very handsome, and very perplexing, paramedic. Slowly her delusions fall away to reveal what kind of life she had been living and how far it is from the life she knows she deserves.
The peace-loving pacifist finds herself facing a difficult choice between her ideals and the direction reality wants to send her. With a strong spine, clear outlook, and a healthy respect for Murphy’s Law, Amy must create a fate that she can be proud of when all is said and done.

Excerpt:
“The police will be here in half an hour and I want all of you on your best behavior. Adam,” Owen paused to point a threatening finger toward his face, “pretend you know what you are doing back here.”
“With all due respect, sir,” he drawled picking unidentifiable dirt from under his fingernails, “I could do much better if you spoiled everyone by buying decent ingredients. I wouldn’t even feed my dog the shit you have me mixing.”
“Shut up and do your job.” He turned his reddening face toward his booty call. “Jane dear, be as charming as ever.” He wagged a teasing finger in the air. “But remember that these are pigs and they won’t appreciate your assets as much as true men do.”
The display nearly made me gag. She must have been overly enthusiastic after the paramedic snubbed her. Gross.
That is when he turned on me. Eyes flashing, and face instantly purpling, he billowed up for a great lecture.
“Hey Amy, any bets as to which part of your anatomy he’ll slice and dice? Heads or tails?”
