Here he runs into Santana, a larger-than-life Latina cage fighter with one arm, a string of beautiful girlfriends, and her eyes firmly set on becoming a UFC champion.Not exactly thrilled by Dylan's arrival, she reluctantly takes him under her wing and via some very tough love she teaches him not just how to kick ass, but how to accept himself.A fast-paced, funny novel about resilience, self-acceptance and realizing that your biggest weakness might just turn out to be your greatest strength.Advance praise for The Ground Is My OceanA touching, beautifully written book that is at once hilarious and gut-wrenching.Reader ReviewThis story touched me in a special way, and I know it will especially speak to those who feel overlooked and neglected.- Teacher ReviewI was swept away in the story and read it in two sittings...a lovely novel and a perfect fit for the genre. I will never look at martial arts or children with disabilities the same way.- Reader Review
