In his review for the Muse Apprentice Guild, Chris Mansel calls IT HAD TO BE US (by Harry and Elizabeth Lawrence) a "beautiful and touching tale."
As published in the First Anniversary Issue of the MAG, Mansel writes:
IT HAD TO BE US is a beautiful and touching tale of how true love can span decades, generations, marriages to other people and the entirety of a lifetime.
From chance meetings, rekindled love affairs, and a foray into the Debbie Reynolds museum in Las Vegas, Nevada, this is a story that, however brief, is an awesome saga of two lives brought back together that were never really apart.
