When Clay must prove to the legal system that he really is an 81 year old man in the body of a 19 year old they seem to accept the DNA and other evidence almost too readily. POTENTIAL SPOILER ALERT - STOP READING NOW IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO READ SPOILERS! While I thoroughly enjoyed this story, there were a few places where it stretched the bounds of believability to the breaking point. This story then follows the couple as they go on a philanthropic visit to install a well in a remote African village and as they set out to determine how their accidental discovery might be used to help all of mankind. After an unnecessarily complicated plan and it's successful execution, Jennie is also reborn into her youthful body. However, she is still in her 78 year old body, so they devise a plan to immerse her in the fountain as well. Needless to say, this freaks out both himself and his wife. When he awakes the next day he has been reborn into the body of a teenager. The couple decides to visit the legendary 'Fountain of Youth' where Clay stumbles and falls into the fountain. At the ages of 81 and 78, they are definitely not as spry as they once were. The story begins with them celebrating their 54th wedding anniversary with a trip to Florida. This novel centers on an elderly couple named Clay and Jennie Evans. I received an electronic copy of this book free from the author in exchange for an honest review. The Renewables by Chuck Van Soye is a Contemporary Fantasy novel.
