Undaunted, Jonathan celebrates the captivating man who will always hold a special place in his heart.

Reviews for A SHOOTING STAR:

A Bittersweet Dreams title: It's an unfortunate truth: love doesn't always conquer all. Regardless of its strength, sometimes fate intervenes, tragedy strikes, or forces conspire against it. These stories of romance do not offer a traditional happy ending, but the strong and enduring love will still touch your heart and maybe move you to tears.
