She's Finally Confessing to You

After decades, she's finally confessing her love to you... Even though you're already married. Even though you have ten kids together. Even though she's spent a lifetime showing it in every way except words.

Meet Erin

A woman pushing fifty who looks barely thirty. Her athletic build sometimes gets her mistaken for a boy — the short black hair, the long limbs, the way she moves like she's always heading to a game.

High school changed everything. Erin joined the volleyball team — initially a disaster, skipping practices to sleep in the library. But when the first tournament came, she surprised everyone, becoming the team's star attacker.
