    About this ebook

    The bell at the delivery door buzzed again. Susan looked up from her computer screen and yelled, "Is anybody going to get that?"

    She waited for help to come. "Where is everybody?" She rose from her desk and walked through an open doorway into the storage room. Walking through a maze of boxes and bins, she reached the door and unlocked it. She pushed open the heavy door to find a handsome man standing with a box on his broad right shoulder. He shifted the box so he could touch his cap. "Good afternoon, Mademoiselle. Where do you want the box?"

    Puzzling over the French word spoken in a decidedly Midwestern accent, she pointed behind her to the left. "Over there, please."

    She watched as he placed the box on the floor and walked toward her. "Sign here, please, Mademoiselle."

    Susan smiled at him. "Of course." After she signed she said, "Please forgive me for being nosey, but I am curious about your calling me 'Mademoiselle' since your accent tells me you're not French."

    He broke into a smile. "But, Mademoiselle, my accent does not tell you the whole story. I am part French. I moved with my parents from France to Iowa when I was only 6 years old. My father is part American and part French. My mother is thoroughly French. She still frets about how quickly my French accent melted away after I started the first grade in Rone, Iowa."

    The man held her eyes for a moment.

    "Merci, Mademoiselle. This is my first day on this route. Perhaps I will see you again."
    +++++
    Their love story unfolds across the Midwest, Texas, and Normandy, France. If you like sweet romance with twists and turns, this book is for you.

    Ann M Streetman

    I may have inherited my flair for storytelling from my father. I heard him spin a lot of good tales as I was growing up. Then came my degree in journalism and a lifelong career in many kinds of communication. I served more than 14 years in various management positions (including president and chief paid staff) of Texas Safety Association, which was a not-for-profit statewide educational organization. Along the way, I also served for 9 years as media contractor for Region 6 National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (5 states and the Indian Nations via the Bureau of Indian Affairs Indian Highway Safety Program). My duties there included writing educational materials for Region 6 entities and their partners. These jobs gave me the opportunity to tell stories of organizations and people who made a positive difference in the lives of others. In retirement, I'm still telling stories. My focus now is on uplifting fiction for adults and children's stories.
