Opis

Can one moment in a life truly define it? Is it possible to move beyond that defining moment and create something meaningful? What if that moment is so horrifying it can't be overcome, just survived? How do you learn to live again after your life is torn apart and all you knew to be real and true wasn't? You ask yourself the questions we all wonder. If only I had done something different. If only I was more careful. If only I could have stopped it. Barbara Rose had it all. She was beautiful, independent and famous, all at 18. She performed for thousands of people and had the world at her fingertips. She was trusting and charitable and those things invited something she could never have imagined. When she was abducted after a concert, her whole life changed. Barbara Rose was gone and Brittany Anthony emerged. Tommy Williams was a regular 18-year-old boy. He had a pesky younger sister and parents who loved each other. He and his best friend were in their first year of college and life was going to be great. He was ready to get started and finally live. The night he was at the bar celebrating the end of his first semester finals, he received a call that would shatter his life and throw his ideas about the future into a tailspin. Suddenly, the future he was waiting to live wasn't a guarantee. If only is a story of triumph and hope. It teaches us all that existing is not the same as living, and sometimes, we really do deserve more. Brittany and Tommy learn that who they are as individuals is nothing compared to what they can be together, but when Tommy finds out who Brittany really is, is throws both of them into a fight for survival.
