The Gift by Richard Paul Evans

Evans always writes feel-good stories that make wonderful tv movies! This short book is no exception. There is tragedy, romance, hope, faith and love. What made this one a little different is that the idea came from an incident that happened during the author's childhood. It involves "the gift" - the ability to heal. In the real event it was Evans' grandfather who had it. In the book the ability belongs to a young boy. Healing is not always about physical things - it can also be emotional. We see both of these in this book. Maybe you will stop and think about which is the most powerful.
