The Bright Side of Disaster by debut author Katherine Center is one of those books that people will read and enthusiastically recommend to others. This spirited novel is about a young woman who must navigate the dreams of modern family as she copes with the desertion of her fiance, raising their newborn baby alone, and her divorced parents' second courtship. In the end, it's the charm bracelet she wears on her wrist that represents who she has become despite the adversity she has faced—a loving mother, a good friend and a believer in Happily Ever After!
