THE PRIEST AND THE PEACHES
a Novel by Larry Peterson
A Father's Legacy to His Children Was NOT What It Seemed
Yimey knew the secret to life. He made sure his family and friends did too. Even when his beloved wife, Elizabeth, died, he kept the faith. But the booze dulled the pain and he used too much. Then he died and left his five children to fend for themselves. They did not understand why people were calling their dad a "great man". How could that be? Alcohol had killed him and he had left them alone. Who was this man they called "Pops" but everyone else called "Yimey"?
Awarded the CATHOLIC WRITER’S GUILD Seal of Approval
This book celebrates family and honors the Catholic priesthood. It deals with alcoholism, abandonment, pride, forgiveness and death. Yet, you will smile in between. It also honors, in a no-nonsense,"blue collar" way, the Golden Rule. This is a unique book and an easy read. When you finish this book you will be smiling and saying,"L-Y-N" "L-Y-N"

Rainy Day Reviews: " I highly recommend this book . You won't be sorry, Larry is a gifted writer who creates a smart, witty, loving and believable characters and story line. I am so happy I got the opportunity to read this book."
A Pocket Full of Books: " I was hooked on this one from the beginning . The writing is very unique and really stands out. The voices are just very distinctive and they're all so easy to relate to."
Reviews by Molly: "This is a book that grips you from beginning to end. It’s filled with real-life events and children that you just want to wrap your arms around, pray for them, and hug them 'til they smile forever. "
Lissette E. Manning: "We’re able to watch a family grow within a period of seven days while faced with an adversity that, at times, seems to want to topple the family altogether. The fact that they’re able to bounce back and find strength and meaning within the very world they live in goes to show us that anything is possible only if you believe "
My Two Blessings: "The story is well written with 3 dimensional characters and the Peach kids will steal your heart as you experience all the ups and downs with them. Highly recommend it."
The Paperback Pursuer: " When I started reading I knew that I would not be able to put it down ; most of the characters are so lively and well-written that they could be alive in the next room."

“A father’s ultimate legacy to his children is not the amount of material things he leaves them. It is found in the lessons of love and forgiveness he instilled in their hearts.”
