HERE
ARE FOUR FUN FACTS:
·
In the book, Savannah has a fascination
for tiny buildings, but particularly tiny churches. One of these is in Niagara
Falls, along the Niagara Parkway. It really does exist. Here’s a photo, taken
by Patti Arbon.
· Another interesting fact is that this church is supposed to be the Guinness book of records holder for the tiniest chapel or church.
· In the scene where Savannah and Michael are in the theatre, they are watching a production of Cyrano De Bergerac, a play about a long nosed musketeer which was originally written in French. In the author’s note in the book, the author explains the significance of the play and how it relates to the story.
· Professor Donovan Radcliffe was never meant to be in the story. But the professor demanded space on the page, so the author, Melony Teague let him. Perhaps one day he’ll get his own story.
ABOUT
THE BOOK
A
Promise. A High School Reunion. And a pact that proves harder to keep.
Research librarian Savannah
Sanderson wants nothing more than to escape into her happily-ever-after novels
with their larger-than-life fictional heroes. But a promise to her late husband
has her attending her dreaded twenty-year high school reunion, drinking ghastly
punch, and taking desperate measures just to keep her vow, even if she has to
hide behind the décor to do it.
Once a reckless troublemaker, Michael McCann fled town after graduation. Now a professional technical rescuer, he’s back for the reunion, but on his trip down memory lane, he soon comes face to face with unresolved issues, namely Savannah. Before the night is over, a pact between these two old friends will lead them on an adventure into uncharted emotional territory where Michael must confront his past regrets and find the courage to reveal the truth. But can Savannah fly from her sheltered nest and risk her heart on a real-life hero?
