Wager to Romance

by Edward K. Mackendrik

Wager to Romance is a story that captures two people in the daily ritual of business travel and embraces the thrill of beauty, excitement of the opposite sex, and the consequence of their acquaintance. They learn however, due to their individual disciplines, to be patient for twenty-two years to fully enjoy mother natures' gift. With this gift a new beginning occurred and with new life came new possibilities only dreamed of previously, yet standing for the eye to see and love to enjoy. Edward K.
