Tales of the Heart — Dennis K. Hausker

Tales of the Heart is an anthology centered on romance as a consistent theme. The stories vary widely to provide snapshots at different ages, stages of life, and circumstances. Some dreams come true in life and others do not. People are faced with hardships and challenges seemingly as a consequence of being born into this world. What they do with those challenges differs a great deal. Usually it doesn't come down to clearly delineated choices between right and wrong, rather it seems there are shades of gray with 'in between' options where a person makes their unique choices based on their personal lives and experiences. There are ample poignant moments, compelling story lines, and some blood pumping adventures.
