John's life has definitely hit a low point. His marriage has ended. He has lost his job. He has had to move back in with his parents in his old hometown. Now he has had an accident which will have him bedridden for weeks. His parents have hired a girl to help him, but John doesn't want anything to do with her. He sees Cloey as a bumpkin. But when she tells him of a mystery revolving around her grandfather and a mysterious inheritance, John is intrigued. The clues are hidden in classic stories which Cloey and John read while he recuperate. But clues just lead to more clues.This was a great story, not necessarily because of the mystery. The real treat was in seeing John realizing that everything that he thought was making his life so great was not so important in the long run. As he loses his attitude (and becomes less of a jerk), he grows to realize that some of the simpler joys of life can have more meaning than so-called success and wealth.As I was reading this story, I could not help but remember the movie called Doc Hollywood. While these two stories may not have a lot in common in a lot of ways, they have a lot in common in other ways.This is a sweet story that will bring a smile to your face and a glow to your heart.
