Love Story

Reviewed by Antonia P. Sani

From the day they met, John and Elizabeth were destined to fall in love. Their whirlwind romance started when they were young collage students and lasted nearly 30 years.
So, when John Baxter is asked to reflect on his long-ago love story with Elizabeth for his grandson Cole’s heritage project, he’s not sure he can do it.

The sadness might simply be too great. But he agrees, allowing his heart and soul to go places they haven’t been in decades. Back to the breathless first moments, but also
to the secret heartbreak that brought John and Elizabeth together.

At the same time, a family friend, Cody, is working through the breakup of his complicated relationship with Andi Ellison.

He is determined to move on when a chance sighting changes his plans and heart. Can Cody convince Andi to give their love another try, or is it time for them to say goodbye for good?

As school comes to an end, Cole presents his report on his grandparents’ love story. It is a tale that touches the hearts of the entire family, and one that causes Cole to better
understand his own beginning.

Quote of The Day

"Reading fiction is important. It is a vital means of imagining a life other than our own, which in turn makes us more empathetic beings. Following complex story lines stretches our brains beyond the 140 characters of sound-bite thinking, and staying within the world of a novel gives us the ability to be quiet and alone, two skills that are disappearing faster than the polar icecaps." – Ann Patchett
