Book Review: Redhead in a Blue Convertible

• “It never ceases to amaze me. One minute you are here, and the next, you’re gone. And the world never knows how heroically the deceased fought to stay alive. They deserve better.”
• “If you dare to dream, you better be brave enough to fight.”
• She was a ship at sea with no course. Her place in the world was dictated by the wind, and it had been months since she stood on the shore and knew who she was, and where she was going. Once this business with Mr. Caldwell was finished, she would think about her future.
• Billy gave her a warm smile and locked his fierce green eyes on hers “Every man is entitled to fall madly in love with a redhead at least once in their lives.”
• “He was sentimental about capturing the important things of his life because he knew once the moment was gone, it was gone forever. This was his rebellion against time and what it takes from us. No matter how old he got, he could always go to these jars, reach into them and pull out a tangible piece of his past. Once he held those stones, he could close his eyes and he would instantly be taken back to the moment, remember what it was like to be there, and find comfort in capturing a tiny piece of life in the palm of his hand. He could hold it for as long as he liked without life blurring the moment forever. The memory came to him so thick, he felt he could reach out and touch it one last time before it floated away.”
• There are moments in all our lives that take years to make an impression. And then there are others that cross the path of our existence in a blink of an eye that perform the same task. It is the impact, not the longevity, we cherish forever.
