We've been told we have starry eyes, enchanting smiles, and an aura of joy surrounding us. Everyone wants to know oursecretfor relationship success, so we tell allin this little book. You'll find life stories that have brought laughter, tears, and enduring love. From the anxiety of that first blind date, to dealing with serious health issues, and traveling abroad, we convey experiences that will help others discover how the sharing of deep emotional feelingscan lead to an intimate relationshipin the senior years. Late life romance is not fiction There is hope for a current or future relationship. We are privileged to share the joy we've found and to challenge others, of all ages, to reach out and embrace life even if it is as late as an October Rose. - Robert Aldridge and Mona Long"
