Better Late Than Never introduces everyone to the main characters. Savannah, a sixty-plus Southern belle transplant living in Chicago. She is a widow of many years and a number one best-selling mystery writer who is definitely content with her life just the way it is. She is not looking for love, and when she least expects the "man of her dreams" to enter her life, there he is! Does she want to ignore the attraction she feels and keep her life just the way it is?
Follow her through the pages as she fights the impulse to pursue this man and what happens when she finally decides she wants him and for better or for worse. She has a wacky sense of humor, and her antics will keep you turning the pages just to see what she is going to do next. She brings humor to the baby boomer problems new couples must face. How to disguise her CPAP so she doesn't look like Darth Vader's mother? How to put romance in an evening that must end with her wearing a chin strap to prevent her from snoring? She handles all these situations with humor and honesty.
Marco, a sixty-plus successful orthopedic surgeon living in Chicago. He meets this wonderful, wacky woman Savannah on the operating table. He is the surgeon repairing her broken neck. He has no idea what fun, games, and overwhelming love is headed his way that morning when he meets her for the first time. She quickly becomes a puzzle for him to solve. He doesn't understand the need he feels for her but knows that he must have her no matter what she says. She is reluctant to pursue their attraction even though it is as strong for her as it is for him. The interaction between him and Savannah will keep you turning the pages to find out who will win in this tug-of-war to find true love. Will he give up his single lifestyle and commit to "until death do us part"? Will he win in his goal to have this woman say yes when he decides yes is the only answer he will accept from her?
A must-read for every baby boomer who is single and looking for that partner who will share the end of life and the "golden years" with them.
This is fiction, but the stories are all based on wonderful people who have been in my life and influenced my creating these characters.
I intend for this to be a series of books and already have the plot for book number 2. A sneak peek to that book is included.
