An exciting, uplifting memoir about one woman's resilience and enthusiasm for life from birth to 78 years which, by example, shows life need not end after tragedy. In a succinct, down to earth, confidential manner, Lee shares:

- Alabama farm life in the 1930s including pulling a litter of pigs out of mama pig at age five.
- The heartbreak of love lost.
- The creative excitement of being a professional ballroom dancer/model.
- The pleasure of being Bobby Darin's lover.
- The intrigue of traveling Europe with a man sought by the FBI.
- The passion of breeding top working dogs and training them through Schutzhund.
- The honor of co-authoring a successful book on Min Pin dogs and finishing her own champions.
- The survival of several near death experiences like piloting her Cessna plane into a spin toward the ocean, rolling a pickup three times and having her heart stop for 10 minutes after surgery.
- The pain of losing one husband in a car accident, another to diabetes and a third one when she threw him out.
- The grace of finding solace and healing through her art.
- The joy of returning to ballroom dancing at age 76 and finding love with a friend from 50 years earlier.
