Description:

“I loved it. It has everything,” said a woman reader. A dream lost. The dream found and turned into reality. Marriage to Laura, an Angel he met along the way, and finally respectability. An older Joe Hancock reminisces sitting by a lap pool viewing the pastel sky hanging over a picturesque ten-acre lake. Joe’s healthy. His bank account is heaping. Laura is healthy and just as beautiful as ever. Life’s good. They've retired. Memories of his New Orleans trip, during spring break are vivid. Laura and Joe spend three wonderful days together doing New Orleans royally and become engaged. Before leaving, he drops by Cajun Manor where he’d visited Shirley, the older woman after Airforce Basic Training. Joe is troubled seeing Shirley and Jill holding the hands of children. He thinks he might have sired two children six years ago. Now he recalls the six years leading up to that shocking observation.
