For the Love of Charlie

Born to tragic beginnings, Rita learned at a young age she was cast to the life raft, adrift and alone, always fighting for the right to be loved. Yet, despite her obstacles, she refused to settle for second. From pugnacious child to determined woman, Rita fought the New England social standards and a cruel stepmother that said she was not worthy. Those in her life felt the very force of her whirlwind, her desperate search and the casualties she created. Charlie, master of the sea, captain of the Grand Banks, champion of his crew, had success beyond measure, yet when it came to matters of the heart, he was lost. Half a lifetime later, at their meeting, purely accidental, Rita wondered if this could be love, for it was so easy to love Charlie. Trusting her instincts, Rita found her moorings in the steady and true ground of Charlie's heart and being first, for the first time, she discovered, she'd do anything FOR THE LOVE OF CHARLIE. Set in the Maritimes, in the first half of the 20th century, this is a story about a lifetime of searching for love. It's a story about sheer willpower and determination and the right to be loved. It's about never giving up, in the face of every adversity and ultimately finding love, a love that became a blessing for generations to come.
