Few who dare to write will ever accomplish what Ms. Smith has provided in this series of snapshots that she has held over her years as gems of joy and treasures of happiness. There is no pretense in her story. There is no attempt to insert the flowery phrases that she has undoubtedly admired from the authors she had read in all her years. There is merely the hush of authenticity that blossoms from her candor as the images spill onto the page. "Love of My Life" is a journey into the heart.
