Harry & Elizabeth Lawrence, authors of IT HAD TO BE US, are gratified by the initial response to the new E-Book version of their little romantic memoir.

In cooperation with The Romance Club, the Lawrences are giving away free copies of this E-Book to people who make a donation of any amount to the IMAGINATION LIBRARY, a program that provides free books to children from birth to five years of age.

Here are examples of recent comments Harry & Elizabeth have received:

From professor and poet José Luis:

“Julia and I just had the pleasure of receiving our e-book copy of IT HAD TO BE US from Imagination Library. Wonderful! Great remembering Julia's blue handkerchief and other details of that memorable, special day. We were touched, again, to read Harry’s kind words of introduction to ‘Again’ (Jose’s lovely poem that’s included in the book). We had fun seeing the recipes in the appendix, which I printed up for Julia.”

From “Fine Tuning” author Jane Bernard to Elizabeth:

“I just read IT HAD TO BE US! So sweet. I'm a sucker for love...The fact that you and your husband recognized and rescued yours from oblivion is glorious! Also the way your husband writes about you is heartwarming. Congratulations! Cool recipes. (I'm a vegetarian also.)”

From film critic MaryAnn Johanson (The Flick Filosopher):

“What a fantastic idea! I hope you give away lots of ebooks.”

From “Dragon’s Cove” author Jamieson Villeneuve:

“IT HAD TO BE US is one of my favorite books. I’ve read it four times already!”
