Bold and honest as 'The Grapes of Wrath,' intimate and gripping as 'The Heart is a Lonely Hunter.' 'The First and Last Chance' is ripe with humor, hell, insanity and sex, it is a memoir about chance and change and the amount that is handed back in life. Two strangers, a 21st century mid life woman from the O.C. and an Oklahoma Cherokee Cowboy embark on roads of adventure, addictions and self realizations that spans three years and twelve states in a fifth wheel! Whatever it began as, the fact remained that the cowboy without a horse had extended an invitation to travel with him with a warning like on a pack of cigarettes.and she'd taken that risk because she'd been ill and aging and she'd had nothing to lose.
