Customer Reviews

Wonderful, heart-warming stories!

Because I am a golf enthusiast, I was immediately drawn to this book, as all of the characters in the several "tales" have been given a special logo golf ball. I fell in love with this book once I got involved in the lives of each character. Golf lover or not, any avid reader would enjoy this novel. It would be a great gift idea!

One of the best fictionalized memoirs on the market

The author is reminiscent of Irish novelist Maeve Binchy in her skilfull weaving of character, place, and theme. The characters are inspired by people the author has known in upstate New York and in Ohio. The theme is making the best of a difficult personal situation, persevering when the going gets rough.
