Here’s the set-up:
Book one is a complete story. After enjoying it, reward yourself with book two, which continues where book one finishes. An excerpt from this book has been published in a national magazine.
Ken Banning, an uncle to his sister’s two daughters and still partly a kid at heart, is a capable engineer who travels the world. He is in the Russian Ural Mountain city of Perm bidding on a large mining project.
His life changes dramatically, when he encounters and assists at a horrific school bus accident on a rural Russian road. Ken returns home to California, but he keeps thinking of: the two, teenage, orphan, Russian boys he helped at the accident; Sonya the beautiful Russian woman he met in Russia; and the vengeful, losing Russian competitor who has vowed terrible revenge against Ken and the boys.
This family-type, easy-read story describes how Ken, the kid in him, and those two Russian,orphan boys struggle to find a life together, and how he finds love from half a world away. Ken wants to rescue the two orphan boys from a cruel future in Russia, but can he, as a single man, bring the boys to America and help them to adjust and suceed with their past terrible experiences.
You can help both adults and teenagers find romance as you read. Many interesting characters are introduced briefly, so you can form your own complete picture of them through the story with their unfolding character and personality. The dialog is accompanied by settings that will make readers feel they are actually inside and living the story. The mix of Anerican, Spanish, and Russian culture weave an interesting story tapestry. Honor and character prevail in this refreshing and uplifting story.

Ken wants to adopt these two Russian boys, but feels it is impossible since a single male is not allowed adoption from Russia. The spirit of Ken’s first, lost love appears, as in book one, to guide and reinforce Ken’s desire to find a family.
The evil Robinson resurfaces to slander the boys, now foreign excange students, as criminals, and this attack causes serious consquences. Ken struggles to keep the boys, who feel betrayed during the slander trouble, from being returned to Russia.

He is again drawn into the beautiful Nadine’s web, while Ashley and her daughter Nancy wonder what will become of their relationship with him. Ken and the lovely Sonya feel their affection changing into a fiery love, but they can never find true love together, since she’s in Russia.

About the authors

Authors Hal and Evangelyn Spohn
The authors met in 1945 after World War II at the small Nebraska State teachers college in Kearney, Nebraska, where Hal’s parents lived. Hal was returning from the Naval Air Corp. and Evangelyn Kalstrom, known as Vange or Vangie, was a junior at the college. She was a beauty queen candidate that year. Hal wanted to play football for a year, and the team was good enough to be offered a minor bowl bid. It was easy for them to fall in love, as often announced by Binger, the owner of the campus eatery. As they entered he would always shout in front of everyone, “Hello again you two, when are you going to get married.” They were separated next year when Hal moved to Colorado University at Boulder for an engineering degree, but they continued a long distance romance.
After Vange graduated, they married in Vangie’s home town,and lived for a short time in Boulder, Colorado, where Hal finished his engineering degree.
Years later, Vange decided to share some of their life experiences, and created a beautiful plot and story line, with some of their life woven into the tapestry of a novel. Together they developed this family-oriented story, and were rescued from mediocrity by their editor Charity Heller.
