The stability wasn't real. And starting over with two kids in her mother's one-bedroom apartment is a lot harder than leaving was.

Her husband thinks she'll come back because there's no way she can do it all alone. But, he's wrong, about more than one thing.

She owns a coffee shop in South Boston that she's poured everything into, shows up fiercely for the people she loves, and learned one thing the hard way: she won't be an afterthought. Not for anyone.
