They Only Eat Their Husbands: A Memoir of Alaskan Love, World Travel, and the Power of Running Away

"Running away is vastly underrated," Cara says. At twenty-six, after a lover threatens to shoot her, she runs away to Alaska. In the Last Frontier she lands in a love triangle with two alcoholics: a paraglider pilot obsessed with danger, and a martial artist obsessed with death. At thirty-five, sick of love, she runs again, to backpack around the world alone. "They Only Eat Their Husbands" (Ghost Road Press, November 2010) is a memoir of Cara's yearlong trek, against a backdrop of reflections on her life and loves in Alaska.
