And even more than that, it\u2019s the awe-inspiring life story of Kailen Combs Taylor. Kailen\u2019s husband Bryan C. Taylor wrote the inspiring memoir. \u201cI simply allowed my heart to spill onto the page.\u201d Taylor said. Bryan grew up on a farm in small-town western Kentucky. There his dreams of becoming an author had their origins on an ancient Dell desktop. In addition to his book, Bryan also maintains a blog about grief, where he seeks to teach others the many lessons that Kailen taught him. Taylor says that Kailen lived with a perpetual sense of wonder, maintaining immutable joy and resilient hope in the midst of some of life\u2019s most barbaric trials. \u201cI tried to narrate the story with fierce, heartrending candor. My hope is that readers will be engrossed by the harrowing love story, causing them to laugh, cry, and frantically turn the page, often all at once. And long after you finish the book and fall back into the hectic fray of life, you may find Kailen\u2019s message still resonates in your heart: that life can be a fairytale, even when it\u2019s a tragedy.\u2019 \u2018Near the beginning, you\u2019ll probably beg me to keep going. And near the end, you\u2019ll probably beg me to stop.\u201d Taylor says, describing the book as raw and completely unfiltered. Bryan and Kailen were married for five years before she passed away from breast cancer in 2015 at the age of 25. She had relatives who live in the Williamsburg area, including Donnie and Debbie Patrick. You are invited to meet the author Bryan C. Taylor as he has two book signings scheduled in Williamsburg on February 14th. First, he is scheduled to be at the Boswell Campus Center Lobby at the University of the Cumberlands from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Later in the day, he will be at the Main Street Baptist Church from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. \u201cEven If You Don\u2019t\u201d launched worldwide on Amazon.com on Saturday, January 27th, and hit #1 on Amazon in all it\u2019s primary categories. It also ranked in the top 10 of ALL of Amazon new release bestsellers! Bryan currently lives in Frankfort, Kentucky with his dog, Rupp. He spends his days working as a pharmacist, and, in lieu of sleep, his nights and early-mornings relentlessly pursuing his dream.
