Dr. Monica never knew that her father was a writer of poetry and always wondered where she got her skill of writing from. While sharing each other's dreams of one day writing a book, Kenneth introduced Dr. Monica to the past time of fishing, which was a hobby he picked up while living in Pennsylvania. It has been through their father-daughter fishing outings that they have been able to really formulate their vision for writing a book of poetry and short-stories about topics that have influenced their lives. "Reel Love" is not a book about fishing, but a book about how the art of fishing helped the father-daughter team to bond, establish a renewed relationship, and express their life's challenges through writing.
