About this ebook

"Cautious, conservative Molly Driscoll still works at the same Jersey shore hospital in which she completed her nurse s training more than a decade ago. When her now-ex-husband, Jason, is diagnosed with terminal cancer, Molly tries to convince him to undergo a recommended course of chemotherapy. In spite of their past difficulties, Molly volunteers to take on something that is equally daunting in exchange for her ex-husband s agreement to give chemotherapy a try. She quits her old familiar job, becomes a Travel Nurse , andtrades in her nice, safe Honda Civic for a Harley Davidson motorcycle. Her assignments take her into the blizzards and biker-barsof New England, the genteel beauty and smoky pool-halls of South Carolina, and the carnival atmosphere of a busy walk-in clinic inKey West as well as to some very surprising and unexplored regions of her own heart. Along the way, Molly experiences a terrifying ordeal with a stranger, tender moments with patients who leave lasting impressions on her, the possibility of a would-be-stalker,and a fellow Travel Nurse who claims to be an angel . In spite of all her old self-doubts, Molly grows in confidence, proving that thoughshe may not be very good at driving a motorcycle, she is quite good at surviving and maybe even resilient enough to loveagain."

About the author

Joan Brady es autora de Dios vuelve en una Harley, su primera novela. Vive y trabaja actualme nte en California. Partiendo de una sociedad en la que el culto al cuerpo y a la juventud son casi un dogma de fe, la autora profundiza en las falsas necesidades que la cultura occidental impone, buscando rescatar un concepto antiguo y perdido: la felicidad. Un camino largo y circular, porque comienza y termina en uno mismo. En la línea de la reciente corriente de pensamiento norteamericano que invita a la aceptación y al reencuentro con nuestra propia naturaleza, Brady propone un nuevo sendero hacia la espiritualidad que transcurre por los vericuetos de la vida cotidiana.
