July 19, 2006: What this story teaches us is that you can promise someone many things, but making a promise that takes away your happiness in life isn't one of them.... And the interesting thing is that this lesson can be applied to many areas in your life, not just in the romance department. Accidental Love is about a wealthy woman named Veronica Cartwright who made a promise to her father long ago never to be romantically involved with a woman again, because she got hurt, and it almost destroyed the Cartwright?s family image. One day, she accidentally hit an underprivileged woman with her car, making her lose her job & apartment. So Veronica, out of guilt, decided to take Rose into her home. As time passed, she never told the injured woman what really happened that fateful night, for fear of losing her. What I love about this story is the very slow pace of their relationship. You see them go through all the stages, from being acquaintances, to friends, to best friends, and then finally lovers. The author even shows how the two women become more intimate and affectionate towards each other, without it being sexual until nearly the end. All those endearing moments, like Veronica and Rose sharing their most wonderful memories, snuggling in bed, sharing the popcorn, giving each other foot massages, loving hugs, and that brief kiss they shared under the mistletoe, were all very sweet. My favorite character is Rose because she is so thoughtful and gentle. For instance, one day at the funeral she saw tired and weary Veronica wearing high heels. Rose painfully went up the stairs on her crutches, gone all the way to the bedroom, and went back down to the first floor, just to get comfortable shoes for Veronica. When someone broke into the office building where Veronica worked, the first thing Rose said was, ?I hope nobody got hurt.? Naturally, one would worry if there were any possessions stolen. This shows that Rose values people more than material things. On the computer, Rose sees all of Veronica?s messy inbox messages, and starts to manage, organize, and put them all in order, without ever being asked to. On a fishing trip, Rose caught the biggest fish they ever saw! Veronica couldn?t understand why Rose wanted to let the huge fish go back in the water instead of having it for a trophy. This just shows Rose?s respect and love for the sea creatures. In conclusion, this is a beautiful story about love, forgiveness, and acceptance between two women from very different backgrounds.
