Deconstructing My Fairy Tale 
A Memoir

In 1999, author Grace Carrington was a college-educated, young, single, employed woman just doing her thing in New York City. And then she met the charming Mr. LC, a man ten years her senior. In Deconstructing My Fairy Tale, Carrington tells the story of how shea hotheaded Jersey girldespite many red flags, pursued the all-American dream with Mr. LC.

In this memoir, she shares her personal journey throughout a decade of her life. It begins with a fairy tale illusion conceived in the mind and heart of a young, emotionally out-of-control girl and ends with reality and restoration as a mature mother of two. Carrrington tells how she struggled to maintain her sanity when the fairy tale became a nightmare because of lying, cheating, infidelity, money woes, and her own secret love affair.

Told like a modern-day Greek tragedy, sprinkled with humor, sass, and emotional meltdowns, Deconstructing My Fairy Tale shares how, after losing everything, Carrington found the faith to rebuild an authentic life, becoming stronger and wiser in the process.
