When you hear the word albatross, what do you think of? Do you think of it as the metaphor, a curse, or do you think of the species of bird that mates for life? For me, it's both. I'm Tangier Grant and I've been cursed with a horrible surprise every six years since I was born. Besides losing my family, I was betrayed by the person who I thought was my albatross. Don't worry about me though, I've adjusted. I've taken control of every aspect of my life, including my men. Now it's my 24th birthday and I'm wondering what my best friend, fate, has in store for me. I did everything I could to prepare for her this time, but when Judge Carter swoops back into my life, I realize she just won - again.
