Love Me Tender
by Roy Skip Paul Shields
Love Me Tender, A Story is at once heartwarming and heartbreaking. It might even warrant a stay at Heartbreak Hotel. Elvis is back on Earth! As with all miracles, there is a catch. Elvis returns to Earth in a body that has aged decades and with only a handful of cash in his pocket (evidently, his angelic handlers have not quite grasped the concept of economic inflation).
His one wish is to speak to and hold his wife, Pricilla, one last time. Elvis must stay in disguise to make this happen. As he travels from town-to-town, he learns his voice is hard to escape. Will he be able to keep his reincarnation hidden from the masses?
Along the way, Elvis learns the life lessons he wishes he had on his first go on Earth. He makes human connections that will last into his next lifetime and performs many heartwarming human gestures that nearly outshine his vocal abilities.
