Polly faced many challenges as an unwanted child by her aunts and uncles after the death of her parents. But she still tries to make the best of everything and makes everyone around her smile regardless, something that everyone in her department at Angels forgot how to do.Johnny's pain made me remember the pain and loss of so many on 9/11, and when the story goes about he was one of the first responders and he was trying to save lives and find his wife at the same time just made me cry. But he stopped living when he lost her and to him even having an affair was being unfaithful, something that may seem unreasonable after so many years. But when Polly came into his life she made him see the light in life again, but it is up to him to fight to keep that light in it or loss it forever.Making the Surgeon Smile by Lynne Marshall will break your heart, make you cry and make you smile with every word.
