Too Far Ahead is book two of The Keepsake Box Series. Book two continues to tell the story of Shelonda and her acquisition of the things that she places into her physical and figurative keepsake boxes. Fresh out of her dysfunctional relationship with KEN, Shelonda starts the process of attempting to get her life together. She starts a new job and focuses on her education. Life isn't easy, but Shelonda is becoming independent and finding solace in her ability to beat the odds. But it's true what they say, old habits die hard. Lonely and vulnerable, Shelonda starts dating a new man who derails the entire course of her life. And in typical Shelonda fashion, she finds a way to amplify the dysfunction to an all-time high. No longer the shy and abused young girl, Shelonda uses her new relationship to advance to a degree that was once incomprehensible to her. As usual, Shelonda gets so far ahead of herself that she gets left behind.
