Description
Being called THE NEXT GREAT AMERICAN LOVE STORY!!!
They say it only takes a moment to fall in love with someone, but a lifetime to forget them!
From the author of Evergreen and Between Your Heart and Mine comes a stirring story that proves it is never too late for love.
When author Lincoln Chandler travels to East Tennessee to interview a recent widower for a novel he is working on, he has no way of knowing he will become part of a love story fifty-six years in the making.
It all began in 1965 when eighteen-year-old Charlie Ross made a bet that would forever change his life. While fishing one afternoon at his favorite spot on the river, Charlie is shocked when Anna Cochran, the most beautiful girl in his small town, comes to visit him. Charlie hasn't had a bite all day, so he obliges when Anna asks if she can give it a try. It isn't long before Anna lands two of the biggest fish Charlie has ever seen. Thinking there is no way she can pull off the hat-trick, Charlie does something completely out of character and wagers one of his sketches against a kiss from Anna if she is unsuccessful. After purposefully losing the bet, Anna kisses Charlie, and the two fall madly in love. For the rest of the summer, they sit on the riverbanks beneath the shade of the giant oak, where Charlie sketches while Anna dreams about the future. But before their burgeoning romance can take flight, Charlie is called away to war.
With a tearful goodbye, Anna promises to wait for Charlie. Two years pass. Then, the night before he comes off the line, Charlie's patrol comes under attack. He is wounded and taken prisoner, where he spends the next eight years in captivity. Thinking Charlie is dead, Anna must pick up the pieces to her shattered world and move on. But against all odds, Charlie survives the war, and after being gone a decade, he returns home, only to find his beloved Anna has moved on and is married to the man who left him for dead in the jungle.
Unable to let her go, Charlie will stop at nothing to win Anna back. But is this the end of their story, or is there one final chapter yet to be written?
