Unexpected Life - Silver Fox Falls, #3

After looking death in eyes, she's ready to live life on her terms - not become someone's wife again. MurielThe only thing harder than going through cancer treatment was getting dumped by my husband of twenty years.  Apparently, he thought the "in sickness" part of our vows was optional.  After clawing my way back to health, I'm determined to live the life I already wanted.  Sure, some might say that fifty-seven is a little too old to start over, but I'm ready for the challenge. After my ex-husband and I sell our house, I take my friend Julie up on her offer to sublet her condo at the Silver Falls Active Living Community.  I've got a new lease on life, and I'm determined to focus on myself.
I'm going to try new hobbies, make new friends, and finally take a stab at writing a novel.  One thing I'm not going to do is settle down with another man, even if I can't stop thinking inappropriate thoughts about my new friend John. JohnIt's been nearly two years since my wife died, and my kids keep hinting that I should start dating again.  Little do they know that I'm hopelessly in love with someone, but unfortunately the woman who's caught my attention has stuck me firmly into the friend zone. Muriel is fiery and eclectic, funny and stubborn, and she doesn't care what anyone thinks about her.
Being around her is like getting a breath of fresh air.  But when she decides to start trying out dating apps, I decided it's time to show her that I'm all the man she needs. This isn't the life either of us ever expected, but it's the life we have and we're going to live it to the fullest.
