Real life; great writing.

Really made me think about life. How unpredictable it is, and how much generosity there is inside and out there. Good, good stories.

Splendid book of stories!

I am touched by the stories contained in Where Love is Found. It's truly a treasury of very special stories that will remain with me. As the book cover accurately states: It is a valentine for literary lovers and a delicious treat for those who crave short fiction by some of today's finest writers. A very meaningful read indeed.

Great Read!

I love this anthology! From the very personal (and rather unusual) dedication by the editors through to the last page of the last story, the book is filled with characters who summon up the courage and compassion to meaningfully connect. It is clear that even in this often harsh world--and in spite of endless obstacles--our humanity survives. Where Love Is Found is a beauty.
