Theirs was to be a love, a marriage that would last forever. It lasted ten years.
Rachel Marin's storybook life:

September 11, 2001

Rachel Marin, a Texas-born beauty, Boston College grad, had always dreamed of being a writer. Even when she served the President as Deputy, White House Press Secretary; later, as a noted journalist covering world leaders and the world famous, she never surrendered her dream.
At thirty-eight, she was just divorced and clawing her way up from the basement of her life. Her heart was broken; her dreams shattered. On a cool September morning, she packed her life away into every corner of her vintage '65 Mustang, and left California.
Along the way to an uncertain destination, a detour through a small, north-central, Texas town; a 50 year old wedding dress in a quaint dress shop; and a chance telling of a five decades-old love story, opens a magical door. The result is a fateful marriage of past and future.
The legendary love story of David Joe Fallon, Jr. and Jessie Marie Taylor inspires a new love story—one Rachel could never have dreamed. She finds herself helping to write a final chapter no one could have imagined.
