Description

Is it better to love without life or live without love? Carmen Simpkins invests in an emotional journey of self-worth and sacrificial happiness in this enduring love story. In the fall of 1995, Carmen Simpkins experienced both her best and worst moments of her life. After several years of infertility issues, Carmen miscarries and withdraws from everything and everyone. Out of sacrificial love for her husband, Spencer, she files for divorce and sets off on a journey of self-discovery. Along the way, she meets antique shopkeepers, Irene and Norman who in turn mends her broken heart through the use of a weathered leather photo album. Meanwhile, Spencer struggles with a decision he was not allowed to make. Soul searching on his own, he toys with alternative solutions including getting drunk and making a life changing decision on his own. Had he gone too far? His gut wrenching emotional pain is enough to push him to the brink of stability himself. Had Carmen made a tragic mistake? Was it too late to fix the mess she made? After setting up a date reminiscent of the first time they met, Carmen unravels an avalanche of painful and good memories. But then a tragic accident happened and life as they knew it would never be the same.
