The Irish Eyes Have It

By Lamar D. Vine

Phoenix, 1987. Joe is eighteen, broke, and fiercely in love. Beside him is Tracy, wearing the small gold ring he could barely afford. With thirty-two hundred dollars and a 1965 Mustang with no heat, they leave Phoenix for Las Vegas to get married and invent the rest as they go.

Instead, the road carries them into a bare Colorado Springs apartment, a winter neither expected, and the orbit of Melanie - an older local actress who becomes their first real friend.

By February, Tracy is in Denver. Joe is alone, calling a house where nobody puts her on the phone.

When the knock finally comes, it isn't Tracy.

It's Melanie - and she already knows something Joe doesn't.

The Irish Eyes Have It is a quiet story of first love, shifting loyalties, and learning that wanting someone is not the same as knowing how to stay.
