Publisher's Synopsis
ag-o-ra-pho-bi-a: agoraphobia tends to start in the mid to late 20s, and the onset may appear to be triggered by a traumatic event.
A Heartfelt Journey of Healing, Love, and Second Chances
Merigold hasn't left her house in years-not because she doesn't long to feel the sand beneath her feet, but because fear has kept her trapped inside. Just as she begins to take small steps toward reclaiming her life, her quiet world is turned upside down by Finn Shepherd-the charming, fan-favorite actor who moves in next door.
She wants nothing to do with his world of flashing cameras and endless attention, but Finn isn't one to back down easily. With the help of a few kind souls-and an unexpected four-legged friend-Merigold is faced with a choice: keep hiding or take a chance on something bigger than fear.
One Step at a Time: Breaking Free is a moving tale of love, friendship, and finding the courage to step beyond the walls we build around ourselves.
