This delightful book will take you back to the 1950s, when family and church were everything, to a simpler time in life when family celebrated the good times and worked through the trials together, through two generations. You will laugh. You will cry. You will become involved in the triumphs and challenges that life brings through our choices and the twists and turns that life takes us on.
Barbie carries a life-changing event with her to her senior years. The twins, Kara and Tara, navigate love, family, and even the heartache of not being able to have a family. Angelica dreams of becoming a nurse from the age of five, to the challenge of raising a child on her own.
After an hour on the trails in the gardens, Tessa suggested they take a rest on the benches ahead. It sounded like a great idea to Angelica. As they approached the benches, a man stood up, facing them. The sun was in her eyes a bit, so Angelica put her hand up to shade them. She smiled at the man politely and walked past him. She was about to sit down, when suddenly she stopped. Quickly, she turned around to take a second look at the man. He was turned, facing her in this direction now. Her mouth dropped open, and she would have fainted if he hadn't caught her. He guided her to the bench, fanning her with his trail map. He retrieved her water bottle, opened it, and handed it to her. She stared at him the whole time she took a drink. Recovering somewhat, Angelica looked at him. Mark...is that you? she asked tentatively.
