Masterfully crafted by Lawrence DelFavero, ‘Love is the Greatest Gift of All’ tells the story of two people who, while their religious and cultural backgrounds traditionally make them worlds apart, come together through life to defy convention. DelFavero’s narrative has a bold message – that love transcends any person’s status or definition to be the universe’s one true constant. One critic has already described the book as expressing “so much goodness and sightfulness of the way our world is and the way our world can be”….

South Salem, NY -- (SBWire) -- 12/16/2014 --There's no way to sugarcoat it; in today's fast-pasted world of technology, instant gratification and an overload of stress, millions are blind to the one thing that doesn't waver - the reciprocated love of those who are dear to them. In his hard-hitting new novel, author Lawrence DelFavero illustrates this with gusto, telling the story of an unlikely couple who form a bond that exemplifies all that is great about the world's most powerful emotion.

'Love is the Greatest Gift of All' is aptly-titled; a bold reminder that each and every person is loved for their own innate character, and that people love them for who they are – not what they have.

Synopsis:

This is a heartwarming story filled with genuine love, goodness and kindness of two families that come together because their children fall head over heels in love with each other and all the circumstances that surround them. Two young, healthy, smart and dearing college students that have their whole lives ahead of the meet. The electricity is phenomenal, constant and heated with the most passion ever!

Readers will be extremely intrigued to see what happens next to all the relatives and others that surround these two bright, caring persons as their story continues. Two different religions, different traditions are all overcome because they are totally in love with each other.

They, as will readers, discover that love is ultimately the greatest gift of all. Generations will come to treasure this book as they learn what is really important in life – the persons around them.

"Many people are misled to believe that they are loved for their status, money, jobs, skills or good looks. This couldn't be further from the truth. Each and every person is loved by someone – and it's for who they are deep inside, not what they can provide in a material level," explains the author. "That is what this book sets out to remind people of."

Continuing, "These people will always be there for you, through the thick, the thin and anything else that may come your way. It's the most wonderful privilege in the world, and something we must never lose sight of."

Reader agree, leaving positive reviews. For example, novelist Gayle Pace comments, ""What the story says is about something that most of us forget in our lives. We forget to love those close to us. Love can give your heart and soul so much warmth. You gain a calmness instead of the pain that you feel from hate. As the author wrote this amazing short story about love, I realized that just everyday living makes it hard to take the time to help others, to let others into our hearts and minds. The author expressed so much goodness and sightfulness of the way our world is and the way our world can be."
