Do-Over (2012)
““I AM A SUCCESSFUL woman.”
The self-affirmation sounded good, but it didn’t seem to be sticking. Cara turned up the Zen music CD, gave herself a stern look in her car’s rearview mirror, and then tried another round.
“I am in control of my life. I am serene and content.”
What utter crap. Dani, her sister, had given her this stupid, “find peace in yourself” book and CD for her last birthday. It must have been intended as a joke gift. If Cara had control of her life, she’d be sitting in her office... at ten in the morning instead of hiding in her car. And any shot she’d had at serene had vaporized last night on the conference room couch.
Cara sipped at her lukewarm latte—damning evidence of just how long she’d been skulking in S.U.’s parking lot. She promised herself that when she was done with the drink, she’d go inside and face what she’d done last night.
Or maybe she’d try just one more happy thought.
“I will be fair to others and have faith that they will be fair to me.”MoreLess
