After Heartbreak, Finally A Storybook Ending

June 28, 2007

Bridesmaid

Quinn was only 24 when she was faced with a devastating loss. "I lost the love of my life unexpectedly after a routine surgery took a turn for the worst," the Vacaville, Calif., native writes in. Then, only two years later, a dear friend of hers died in Iraq. But as the old cliche goes, you never know what's around the next corner. As Quinn writes, "I met my fiance, Brett, twice in passing. There was an attraction, no doubt, but it wasn't enough initially to spark a dating relationship. Shortly after our second meeting, Brett's father passed away. We ran into each other a third time, fell madly in love, and were engaged eight months later. We were literally a match made in Heaven."
