This book is a continuation of the story that began in my first book, The Second Time Around. It depicts marriage disappointments and disillusions from a male perspective. Most men are fundamentally good and can resist the temptations of infidelity when given a choice. The challenges of dealing with a wife that constantly pushes them to the margin of her life can often be too much for some men to bear. As a young man right out of college, Norman, was assigned by his company to a territory in southern Pennsylvania. While living there Norman met Gail, an attractive middle-aged woman that was ten years his senior with a teenage daughter. Gail and Norman became inseparable and very much in love. Neither of them felt any pressure to get married. After six years Norman was promoted and had to transfer to another part of the country. Fearing that their age difference would cause their relationship to fade, Gail opted to stay in Pineville and they drifted apart. Many years later when their paths crossed again Gail realized that she was still in love with the man that she had considered her soul mate. This book tells what happens as the star-crossed lovers struggle to forge a relationship that seems to be destined for a life of together ever-after. With admirers from several different angles, Norman struggled to maintain his fidelity to his marriage and disappointments in the effort threatened to derail his resurgent relationship with his wife.
