The Best Is yet to Come (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781663221728)

This is a bitter-sweet, blue collar love story. Brad is disillusioned as his "steady" girlfriend in the eleventh grade becomes unavailable. And a couple of dalliances along the way just complicates things. Then he watches as all too many of his high school buddies are trapped in unpleasant marriages. Ten years pass, and he finds himself almost manipulated into a disastrous marriage, only to be rescued at the last minute by the one-time sweetheart. He moves into the run-down house that she owns, and they are shunned by neighbors for "living in sin". But they refurbish the house, take random college courses, then marry before the first of their four children is born. At a critical time, Brad reflects on all the ups and downs of their time together, some of it in silent dialog. The title? From Robert Browning -" Grow old with me, the best is yet to be...", though as they quote it over the years, it becomes "The best is yet to come".
