This exciting island style story starts out with a strange encounter. Essie ran into a peculiar stranger. Her life has never been the same. She had many failed relationships, one immediately after the other. She became a 'serial dater' but could not find the right person to go the full distance of husband and wife. There was one troubling little detail about most of her failed relationships. Most of her failed relationships left her with one more child out of wedlock. Eventually she met the man that was not afraid to accept her and her eight children in his life. 'His love was ecstasy. It slowly opened up her soul and blew her mind.' This is the new and exciting updated version of the original Romancing Essie.
