A suspenseful, page-turning, true love story, for all people!
 
Can love conquer all, in this true story of fate and destiny, hopeless long-distance romance, and coming out?
 
"As surely as I was breathing was the certainty that everything was about to change and change in a big way. I took a deep breathe as I thought to myself, I better stop and appreciate this day and this time and this life, because something huge was on the horizon.”
 
In August 1995, Sallyanne Monti was a 34-year-old mother of four, married to her husband of sixteen years, living on Staten Island, NY, an island in the Verrazano Narrows Bay. When by an act of fate via a misdirected email, she met Mickey Neill, a 44-year-old HR Manager, married to her husband of twenty years, living 3,000 miles away in Alameda, CA, an island in the San Francisco Bay.
 
The rapid progression of events that led to their whirlwind friendship would test the bonds of matrimony, sexuality, and love.
 
In the wake of a deluge of tears, pain and dismal reality began the journey that would for a long time to come, be known as The Light At The End Of The Tunnel. We could only survive in our day-to-day lives if we were able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. The tunnel was the three thousand miles that separated us. The light was being connected, preferably in the same two square inches, or more realistically, by phone or email or computer, if only for a minute or an hour or a day.
