Being a pilot is all I’ve ever known. I served my country and I’m damn proud of my career. But sacrifices were made, especially when it came to family. I’ve missed first steps, first days of school, and first dates to name a few. My kids grew up. They’re having families of their own. Was it worth it? When an opportunity brings me to Seaside, I jump feet first no questions asked. It means experiencing all those firsts with my grandkids. With family as my focus and my guard down, I don’t even see Faye coming. She’s a force to be reckoned with and has me holding on for dear life. I thought our ship had sailed, but now that I’m home for good—I just might get more than one second chance.
