Fast reading as it is such a wonderful sharing of a love story...and it is TRUE...The characters are so well defined..you feel you know them personally within a few pages of the book. I have never met Aaron or his daughter, father, stepmother but I did grow up with his wife and do know his mother in law...and it is a most incredible house on the ocean...but I feel that I now know Aaron and the rest of his family as well and I adore them all.
One of the most heart-warming stories I have ever read!

I just loved this book! It was so encouraging to read a story written by a man who cares so deeply about his father. Not to say that men don't usually care about their elderly parents, but in today's world, so often we see "old folks" cast aside and forgotten by their children. Also, anyone who has lost a parent could relate to this story because it is very hard to have to watch one parent "go on alone." Clyde and Gussie are both such believable characters and they make this "pretty old world" look pretty darn good at eighty years old! This is truly a beautiful love story! Thanks Mr. Latham!
