LOS ANGELES, Oct. 14, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- For those who believe allure and excitement belong only to the young, Richard Christopher presents a compelling love story. A Miami Affair (now available through AuthorHouse) delves into the lives of two mature, successful people who find themselves entangled in an unexpected challenge: new romance.
International businessman Ian Maxwell travels the world representing his contractors in the aircraft business. Having enjoyed a long career at the top of his field, he looks forward to a peaceful, uneventful retirement. However, a chance meeting in a Miami airport with a "lady of a certain age" drastically changes his plans.
Jen Cardell, senior buyer for a major Chicago department store, takes pride in her independence. A competent, successful woman, she has built a comfortable life for herself with little interference from other people, especially men. When she meets Ian, she cannot possibly predict what adventures await.
Instant attraction tumbles the two into an affair that takes on an exotic air as they travel the world in a swirl of business and pleasure. With a lifetime of experience behind them, both Jen and Ian believe they are safe from the complications of a serious relationship, but they are wrong. As their love grows, the two must learn to deal with feelings and emotions they thought they had outlived. Together, they encounter the euphoric highs of new love and the difficulties caused by family members who are less enamored with the situation.
A true romance story for anyone who believes it is never too late to savor the sensual side of life, A Miami Affair takes readers around the world on the wings of a more mature love.
Christopher is a retired international businessman who has worked and lived abroad extensively throughout his career. He has also served in the military, and currently lives in California. Christopher drew from his own experiences and interests to write A Miami Affair, his first published book.
