Boxes of Years by Katrina Prado

At thirty-eight Margie's life is unraveling. She fights her feelings of remorse over a childhood secret with coffee mugs full of sherry and trashy romance novels trying to escape the rigor of her sorrow.

When a crisis threatens to split the household apart, the truth about Margie's past comes to light, leading her on a journey she swore she would never make. Yet the journey's end is the only thing that can free Margie from the bondage of her painful past.

Boxes of Years is a profoundly moving portrait of one woman as she grapples with her own inner truth, an inquiring and in-depth look at love, loss, and the unremitting cost of choice.
