The tales of two very different southern families that come together in a marriage with children and grandchildren that each have a story to tell and parents that weave them into an anthology that is fun to read. Each are exciting new authors from 10 years old to 78 and each with something to say. The titles of their stories tell it all; Southern Innocence, Did You Ever See a Dog Smile, Cries In the Skies, or Blondes With Guns. If we had a mission in creating this book, it would have been to show that traditional southern grace and the simple elegance of southern family living have survived.
