Summary

This heartfelt romance follows two young lovers from immigrant families who meet in their teenage years and go on to get married. The story is based on my parents' lifelong love affair. They deal with many challenges and successes during their years together, but it is their bond and resilience that last a lifetime.

Together, Sol and Yetta face many challenges, as well as moments to rejoice. Throughout their relationship, Sol is hospitalized with a mental illness, attempts to find a better career, and is even arrested. Fortunately, Yetta is there by his side, pulling him out of dark times and encouraging the good. All the while, Yetta herself must deal with an overbearing mother-in-law while facing the demands of a fulfilling career. Despite all the setbacks and personal troubles, it is their strong bond to one another that helps them overcome life's challenges.

This book, their story, is for anyone who is a romantic at heart and believes the strong bond between two people can raise them above whatever life throws their way.
