The Life I Didn't Live

The story

A woman who did not experience a carefree youth. A romance that arrived unexpectedly, at the wrong time. When she attempts to make up for lost time and reclaim the life she never lived, she must pay the price. The series' protagonist—a Greek refugee from Odessa—married a much older man at sixteen and had a son with him. He constantly cheated on her and eventually left her for a younger woman. She raised her son on her own and, now forty-five, has finally got her life in order.
