In 1940s Copenhagen, Kirsten Marie Pedersen has learned to want very little. With an alcoholic father, a struggling mother, and German occupation pressing down on every corner of her life, survival is enough. But Kirsten is not built for small lives. When liberation comes, she secures work as a translator at a US air base in post-war Germany, and for the first time, she glimpses a world beyond what she was born into. Then tragedy strikes, and she is offered something she never expected: a chance to start over in America.

With great tenderness, transparency, and candor, Tami Longaberger opens her heart, offering readers a glimpse of her unique American Dream, the kind not handed down or given freely, but earned by hard work and fierce tenacity. Longaberger prompts listeners to dream bigger, think more broadly, and risk taking the road less traveled in business and in life.
