Love After All

On the eve of college reunion season, a reserved divorcée crosses paths with a passionate widower in the lobby of their building. Faced with the prospect of being the only one of her friends to attend her thirty-fifth college reunion alone, Laurel impulsively invites the first man she sees. Gino, intrigued by her candor, agrees to help – but dismisses any possibility of romantic interest. Can a lovely April alumni weekend at Duke University help them connect despite the very different lives they’ve led?

Description

Part of the Love and the City collection of three books set in New York.

Laurel Jennings, a long-divorced New York University professor, needs a date to her thirty-fifth college reunion at Duke University.

Gino Milano, recent widower and highly successful New York restaurateur, needs a date to fend off the advances of women at his own weekend of fundraising events. These involve cancer, since his beloved Rosie died of the disease.

Laurel and Gino are from different worlds and have very different experiences with love and family life. When they team up to help each other out, Laurel thinks things are going well when Gino doesn’t. And Gino thinks things are going well when Laurel doesn’t. At one point it looks like Gino’s trip to Laurel’s reunion is off. Then it’s on again. And all is going surprisingly well at the beautiful Duke reunion in glorious April until Laurel’s ex ruins everything – at least as far as Laurel is concerned.

Back in New York City can Gino and Laurel get on the same page and get it together?
