Memories of the past. White wine. A simple vase of colorful roses. Meet Paul Summer, a divorced author who has lost his way. Earlier in his life Paul was a player, a metro-male, someone in total control of his actions. Now, as a fifty-something middle-aged man, he is just a shadow of his previous self, only going through the motions of living. On a routine book signing trip through Albuquerque, New Mexico Paul meets two ladies who want to help him regain his lost mojo. Shelby allows him to feel things he never thought he would ever feel again while she gets exactly what she wants from him. Kathy, an acquaintance from his past, reminds him about the things he used to believe in, how he influenced her life, and what a colorful vase of roses once meant to him. Another 'real-life' fiction tale from award-winning author Philip Nork.
