OverviewA live-changing, inspirational adventure and love story about a girl, stuck in the dregs of poverty, who discovers the American Dream. Once gorgeous and brilliant, Corey Adams believed she could accomplish anything. She took that belief to college, but like many people, when bad things began to happen in her life, she dropped out of school, struggled and then fell into the safety net provided by the US government's welfare system. As the years passed, she came to rely more and more on Uncle Sam's help. During those years, she lost her drive, her ambition and her love of life... that is, until Aaron Billings showed up at her door. The two set off on a jeep adventure to explore America. During the jeep trip through the Black Hills and historic sojourn, her spirit was reborn by the adventure while she relearned the spirit of the American Dream. The Book: Born Again American was the inspiration for the Shelley Laine song: Born Again American. Like many inspirational tales, the short story got a life of its own.
