A loving husband finds his life cut tragically short. A lovelorn schoolteacher finds unexpected passion in the stories she "red-pens." A down-and-out writer takes a chance on a dream. With humor, heart, and beautifully crafted prose, Dreams From the Heart is a collection of nineteen short stories by C. R. Sturgill that offers a fresh male perspective on love, romance, family, and hope. Anyone who has been in love, or seeks love, will find a treasure trove of compassion and tender expressions of emotion in this shimmering collection. Brimming with positive, uplifting messages, the book was created to inspire hope by revealing the infinite capacity for love in the human experience. Each contribution features a distinctly different plot, original characters, and a diverse writing style.

The stories explore love at all stages of life-from high school students experiencing their first taste of love to nursing home residents enjoying their last.
