Then & Now

Sixteen and pregnant, Kim thinks Kevin left her behind when he got his orders to a new Air Force base.


Thirty years later, Kim’s daughter tracks down Kevin. Happy with her life, Kim still wonders what could have been—especially when she meets the kind and handsome man Kevin became.


And whether she and Kevin can reconcile their rocky past with a promising future, and have a second chance at first love.


A charming and poignant romance short story from the deft hand of Dayle A. Dermatis.
