More about the book

The year is 1955. High school seniors Julie and Bill undergo a spell cast on them in a magical moment at a dance. On the surface it is every fairy tale come true. Graduation, on the other hand, sends them in separate directions. Thirty-nine years later, they agree to meet in Chicago for a secret reunion. The years of protected love and fragile feelings consummated in that moment in 1955 are put on the table. What follows is a trail of events that dissects the lives of Julie and Bill, extracting from them personal securities and complacency as they attempt to reclaim what at one time was an event bigger than life itself. For anyone who has ever asked themselves the question, "Whatever happened to him or her?" this could be your comfort story.
