Seemingly Perfect

The Pendulum Trilogy: when life gives you second chances

"With Mary Strand at the controls, readers are in for a flight of a lifetime, spiraling downward, seemingly out-of-control, pulling up at the last minute, and into a beautiful, perfect landing. Emotional. Heartwarming. Deliriously Funny." - Robyn Carr, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author

Victoria Carlyle Bentley has the husband, the kids, the career, the mansion-even the Porsche convertible-of which dreams are made.

But Vic's perfect world collapses when her marriage faces some wildly unexpected changes, the FBI visits her Minneapolis art gallery, and a strange young woman stomps all over what's left of her well-manicured life. And when she thinks her life can't get any worse, the man who was her first love and greatest heartbreak shows up on her doorstep.

Sometimes dreams turn out to be nightmares. But with a fresh perspective and the help of good friends, Vic just might wake up and find a new dream life for herself: one that isn't black or white but, instead, a technicolor rainbow.
