BOOK REVIEW
WHEN I FALL IN LOVE
CLINT MOREY
BOOK DESCRIPTION BY AUTHOR:
It must be nice to have the perfect plan for your life.
Amy Prescott is just your ordinary, everyday high school senior — beautiful, brilliant, athletic, able to pick the hunk of her choice, and a scholarship to Harvard nearly in her hands.
Okay, maybe not so ordinary.
She has her life planned out and it’s an exciting, adventurous plan. She can hardly wait for the next step.
But when she’s forced to care for her grandparents in Montana during Christmas break, Amy finds her orchestrated world is about to snap. She’s stuck with a cantankerous grandfather who doesn’t want her help, but needs it because of a stroke, a grandmother who is the sweetest thing ever, but suffers from Alzheimer’s, and family members out to protect “their share” of the estate.
Grandpa, a master cello maker who can no longer do his craft, reluctantly shares with Amy the story of his great adventure – how he met and won the heart of his wife in Vietnam.
But Amy has more immediate concerns. Is her boyfriend dating someone else when she’s not around? How can she fend off the Montana boy who has taken an interest in her? And then there’s that Harvard thing.
Amy doesn’t need any of this. Not now. Her life is planned. It’s a perfect plan.
At least it was.
MY REVIEW:
This short story by Clint Morey was a very sweet love story that we all dream of having. The story told of two people who had been married and in love for 40 wonderful years. Grandpa told the story to his loving granddaughter, of how he and the love of his life met in Vietnam. As he told the stories he hoped that his bride would remember from time to time as she suffered from Alzheimer.
I recommend this story for anyone who has a romantic heart. It is a short story and can be read very quickly. Perfect for a Sunday afternoon!!!
