For those who seek pure entertainment or light reading on a rainy day, this is a perfect page turner. It combines a love for the RV lifestyle as well as having a strong emphasis on motorcycle travel. Many themes run through this piece: romance, sorrow, heartbreak, trials and tribulations, as well as true love. Chuck Calder, the main character has lost the love of his life and is chasing the meaning of life both literally and figuratively. He rides his Kawasaki 1500 cc touring bike cross country to all the old places he and Charlene lived in or frequented. From Arizona to California and parts in between, he describes the scenes both in present day and in the past; a nice manner of composition. How does he come to terms with the loss of the love of his life? How does his past military service fit into it all? Are his memories true or did Charlene have an affair during their long marriage? Does it matter? Will he ever find love again? How does one move on after such a tortuous loss? You won't find any spoilers here. You'll have to buy the book, and support a fellow RVer. It's available on
Amazon Kindle for just $2.99.
Thank you so much for the nice review, Mary. This book was, of course, based in part on my own life experiences, although by the fifth draft it had morphed considerably. I am currently soloing in my 39 ft Jayco 5th wheel. I am in Fallon, NV headed (slowly)for the west coast.
ReplyDeleteYou're very welcome. I also published it on Amazon and Goodreads for you. We hope to make it to the West Coast this summer or fall. Maybe our paths will cross.
