Excerpt

He couldn’t remember how long he had stayed with her body, but a kind, compassionate nurse finally persuaded him to let her go. It didn’t seem possible the accident could have killed her. She had some visible injuries to her face, but none of them seemed like they should have been fatal. Holding her hand while whispering to her, he couldn’t accept the reality that she wasn’t really there. Wake up, honey, please . . . When he finally left, he felt guilty, thinking he’d abandoned her, that she would be lonely there without him. After all, they had rarely spent any time apart. They had been each other’s constant companion since their engagement so very long ago.


Professional Reviews

Fantastic Book!
Just finished reading this book and love it! It's well written and interesting and I love the fact that you can read a chapter at a time for an entire story. Perfect title. Great job. I recommend it.


Just enough to wish there was more to each story
but enough to display John M. Wills's writing talents. This is the first work of his that I have read. I will move his other books to the top of my to-read list.


The Nightstand Collection
I have read several short stories from this book and find them most interesting! I would highly recommend this book
