I knew the moment I saw the summary to this book I just had to read it. I didn't realize it was a short story however. But I was still very happy with all that happened in the book.With most short stories it's hard for me to get a good feel on characters because of the lack of time authors can devote on them. And that's one reason I am not a huge fan of them. But with Remembering Zane I felt the author gave them just enough for us to know who they are, giving them a more developed feel than most story stories.The storyline was great; I just loved the idea that even though she lost the love of her life, or so she thought, there was someone there who had loved her all along. The only thing I found wrong with the story was, wait for it....it was a short story. Gosh, would have loved for it to have been longer!!!I talked to the author the other night and she is getting ready to publish her next book, The Unfaithful Widow. And I am very excited about this due to loving Remembering Zane!************2ND REVIEW FOR THE REVISED EDITION....Wilsoncroft got picked up by Write More Publications and they did a reprint of Remembering Zane. Gave it a beautiful new cover and even a couple new chapters were added as well. Being a HUGE fan of Wilsoncroft I jumped at the chance to review it again. To see my first review go to (SEE ABOVE).I thought the first time I read Remembering Zane it was great. But here I am finishing up with it a 2nd time and all of it's added chapter glory, and I think it's even better. I loved how the author gave us more of their relationship...a wedding...babies. Ok, ok, will stop there. You get the gist...it's just so, so good not to rattle on about.I also want to mention that the first time I read Remembering Zane was right after losing my father. So the opening scene was a bit rough on me. The feelings the author wrote were spot on and and brought on some strong emotions. Now it's been a bit longer and the emotions are still there. This only shows this lady knows how to write the scenes that come alive and affect a reader. Kudos!In my first review I think the only problem I had with the book was it was a short story. But dreams do come true! With the added chapters it still is shorter than most books, but I was in heaven since I was able to get more of these great characters. Jon is just a wonderful, wonderful man that I adore dearly. Such a great character for the book. And I was glad I was able to read more about him.The great thing about Wilsoncroft's books is they target everyday people. With each of her books you get something new and different...not the same old-same old you read all the time. So do me a favor and check out her books over on goodreads then pick one up today to read.
