Love and Hope is an engaging true story about an incredible forty-year love affair.
"Happily ever after" does not mean there are no tears. Death is sandwiched between vibrant lives. This incredible love story begins in LA when a Hollywood Jewish man meets a lustfully youthful woman. He dates the wealthy and influential, and she's a younger Christian woman from the Midwest. This story reveals how life changes from a happenstance meeting and changes again when one of them is no longer there. It is a story of hope and renewal because of, not in spite of, tremendous sorrow.

Women read romance stories because they long for passionate, life-changing love and happy endings. They are searching for romance after marriage in their ordinary life. This love story is about life after marriage, a tenderness which gives a glow to the ordinary, mundane things we all live with every day. It gives people hope that mediocre relationships do not have to be the norm.

"This memoir is compelling, and as I read her love story, I experienced her joy and her pain. The Helpful Suggestions' addendum is priceless."
