"True magic - a story that will warm your heart from the inside out." ~~ Ms. Jennifer Greene, USA TODAY bestselling author ~~
...Because happily ever after is just the beginning...
"You'll always be a part of my life."
When James McElroy said those words, seventeen-year-old Olivia Banks believed him. And when she discovered she was pregnant with his child, she expected to marry the love of her life. Instead, the young couple was separated! Olivia thought she'd been abandoned and was forced to accept another man's offer to marry her and raise the boy as his own.
Now, decades later, the truth unites James and Olivia. They are Husband and Wife at long last! As James lies ill in a hospital bed, olivia recounts her life with -- and without -- him. Their story gives her faith that that the heart of her heart will return to her again. Because her first love is her last love -- HER ONLY LOVE!!
"Remember that old poem?" she whispered near her husband's ear
"If you love me as I love you, nothing but death can part us two...' Oh, please, God," she sobbed, clinging to his hand as she slid into the chair beside his hospital bed.
Years ago she'd uttered those words without knowing the pain of them. Yet in this moment of anguish she faced the raw truth -- she would promise anything, make any sacrifice, give up everything, if only he'd get better.
Think positively, she murmured to herself. James was going to be fine. He had to be. James always confronted life without fear. He'd make it.
She needed her life back. She needed to hold James in her arms, to hear his reassuring words. She needed to know that her life would be whole again.
Olivia leaned back in the chair, letting the quietness of the hospital room shield her from the painful reality of these past hours. James McElroy was her life. And always had been.
Everlasting Love: Every great love has a story to tell.
