    Steven Decker
    “She鈥檇 always loved the mountains, but as she turned back to face the spectacular seascape in the distance, she nearly lost her breath at the diversity of beauty to be found on this ancient, tiny island.

I could live my life doing this, she鈥檇 thought. And she鈥檇 done that, for a while.”
