Lovingly, Yours Genevieve Belmaker

For 20 years, a former U. S. Marine-turned firefighter and his one true love - a journalist and writer - have remained unchanged in their feelings, but torn apart repeatedly by distance, time, circumstance, and choices. Even so, without spending more than a few days together at a time, they stay in love. Then one day, she sends him a series of letters, poems, and news articles she wrote over a one-year period. All of it is part of her soul-searching reflection on why their love hasn't had a happy ending - or any ending. This slim volume includes visceral accounts about first responders, crime, and social justice issues in America, and plays out against the backdrop of world events and international travel from 1998-2018.
