James (Vietnam War vet) was the only 1 who came back.Tom (bar owner), & Lily (wife) offered James a place to stay, until he got back on his feet.1967, Tom had his own apartment & a CJ-5 Jeep.Dr. Claire (granddaughter, vet) moved to Elk River, took over the farm & opened up her own vet clinic.James helped her get things done/organized.It wasn’t long & they became an item & later got married.1974, Claire got sick, & was diagnosed with cancer.Catherine (James/Claire’s daughter) would miss her mom.Elmwood (Elk River).

Was it just a summer romance?I did not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing this book. While I receive free books from publishers & authors, I am under no obligation to write a positive review. Only an honest one.A very awesome book cover, great font & writing style. A very well written family heirloom book. It was very easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters to keep track of. This could also make another great family heirloom movie, or better yet a TV series. There is no doubt in my mind this is a very easy rating of 5 stars.Thank you for the free author; BookSends; Amazon Digital Services LLC.; bookTony Parsons MSW (Washburn) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Breezy & Character Driven *by L***J on March 14, 2019* I have been sadly lacking in completing book reviews over the last year so here I am, trying to catch up.I enjoyed this quite a lot. It's a quick and easy read, but don't mistake that for "simple." The story itself is complex and elegant while simultaneously remaining nicely streamlined. The Jeep is a fully fleshed out character in itself; it's not easy to give such depth to an inanimate object, but the author has managed to do just that. It's clear that the author is well-versed in the world of cars and mechanics and that love shines through brightly.The human characters were all fully developed and captured my emotional interest. I became invested in each one, sometimes becoming sad when the Jeep had to move on to another person, thus cutting my time short with certain characters.The end tidied up all the loose threads into a lovely little package. I won't lie - it made me cry. How did I come to care for a Jeep and its family so much? My emotional investment was solid.While I typically will read almost any genre, I tend to be heavier on sci-fi/fantasy, and I will admit that this contemporary fiction was a refreshing change. I read it in two days. It took me that long because I had to work. :)For anyone that's looking for a heartwarming book to cozy up on the couch with, or maybe sit out on the deck or on the beach and soak it up, this is it. And if you're a car nut, you definitely should check this out. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ very much a hallmark story *by L***Y on June 15, 2023* Cute little read. If you need something light and airy, this is the read for you. It has a happy ending. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/171526601-of-metal-and-earth](https://www.desertcart.us/products/171526601-of-metal-and-earth) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
