Determined to help others, interested in new ideas, and then (finally) open to the unexpected, astonishing, and amazing things that come from being in love, she is ready to begin life anew with the best plan of all...a loving helpmate by her side Not your everyday romance! Book Review: Writer's Digest: “As the foreword said, this is a story that deserved to be told. Much more than a biography of a courageous soldier in WW II, while focusing on the author's uncle Frank Shaw, this book vividly captures the horrors of war, the emotions surrounding the battles that young men in Frank Shaw's infantry regiment were forced into, their fears, day by day per the dangers they encountered, and the physical and emotional hardships and scars the war, the frontline and POW experiences left as a result. Having written the book after the subject's death, Bill Shaw must have done an incredible amount of research -- reading letters, e-mailing old friends, interviewing family, friends and colleagues, piecing in facts from numerous books, newspapers and magazines, etc. -- to produce such a comprehensive, very readable story. This was obviously a labor of love and gratitude -- the author's dedication to a real hero. The writing is very even and compelling, with interesting, relevant details, helpful dialogue and scenes of real action and danger. I was very moved by this book.” -- Writer's Digest
