Though separated decades ago, she is sure that second chances happen and that she will be reunited with her one true love. But will she? In an emotional twist of fate she is reunited with something even more precious. In the second part of the story, a southern writer publishes her one work of fiction right before she dies, but it is more than a story it is message to her true love that opens with a haunting dedication: Find Our Baby.
