I spent a good part of my early life in the mid 1940'-50's in a small town in Ohio. We had gossips just like those in this story. Oh my, don't be a divorced woman or the daughters of one and live in 'their' town. I know those ladies well.I thought it was gone until I went to a church outside of Atlanta. The preacher - a really great one - was divorced and remarried. His wife taught exercise classes - OH MY!! You could tell there was a lot of love between them but the gossips had their say about her. Her hair was not 'normal'; she was not a teacher - an acceptable profession and it goes on.What Paul and Martie faced is alive and well unfortunately but Bob & Beth will endure as Paul and Martie did, facing the gossips and living as God intended man and woman to live.A really sweet story about how to tell the truth of your feelings, how to reconcile them and live life, what you see is not necessarily what you get - and maybe win over the town (church) gossips. Good quick read.
