Under such crushing pressure, there’s no room for error in my bid to reach the NFL and help support my large family. With stakes this high, who can afford distractions? Not me, which is how I ended up in a fake relationship with the most irritating woman I know – Lauren Bagley. As a competitive gymnast, her only focus is securing a spot at the college nationals competition.

This isn't my life. Okay, it is my life, but not the way I envisioned it would be. I wasn't supposed to be a divorced mother of three when I turned the big 4-0. Sure, I expected the fine lines, gray hairs and left over baby belly. What I didn't expect was expanding our family get-togethers by one... my ex-husband's new child bride. Ok, ok, she's not young. Maybe.Did I mention this is not the life I planned? It could always be worse, I know. I'm lucky to have a mother who loves to babysit, a best friend who loves sarcasm, and a new friend by the name of Greg who is a child whisperer and tells me my eyes are pretty. Sigh... Greg. The perfect, Adonis-like God of a man who keeps flirting with me. At least I think he's flirting with me. It's been so long, I don't really know. Between birthday parties, a few ill-advised bouts with make-up, and a whole slew of gymnastics classes, it's finally time to take back some control. So, while my girls learn all about how to grip the bar, I'm going to learn how to get a grip on my life. And maybe my heart.

The first major biography of the Carter Family, the musical pioneers who almost single-handedly created the sounds and traditions that grew into modern folk, country, and bluegrass music. Meticulously researched and lovingly written, it is a look at a world and a culture that, rather than passing, has continued to exist in the music that is the legacy of the Carters—songs that have shaped and influenced generations of artists who have followed them. Brilliant in insight and execution, Will You Miss Me When I'm Gone? is also an in-depth study of A.P., Sara, and Maybelle Carter, and their bittersweet story of love and fulfillment, sadness and loss. The result is more than just a biography of a family; it is also a journey into another time, almost another world, and theirs is a story that resonates today and lives on in the timeless music they created.
