Book Summary: He was lost. Lost in those  deep brown, beautiful eyes.  As clear as day, Cal heard a voice  inside his head:  "That is the girl  you are going to marry." Deep in the alcoves of 93-year-old Cal Morgan's mind is an unexpected and intriguing past.  Recollections of growing up a farm boy during the Great Depression, learning to foxtrot in the  largest ballroom in America, and serving as an infantry soldier in World War II are fragments  of his memories.
