My Boyfriend's Back

When divorced former first lady of New York City Donna Hanover and her high school sweetheart reconnected, 30 years after their split, they discovered to their mutual delight that the spark between them was still there. In a number of sweetly romantic tales of lost loves found, Hanover records stories of couples--many of them famous--who find each other again after lengthy periods of single life, unsuccessful marriages, or widowhood. Hanover, a journalist and actress, narrates in companionable style, suggesting that our first choices may somehow be our best choices. She offers detailed ways listeners might find their old flames, as well as advice on how to cope if and when a reconnection fizzles. Hanover's book isn't science, but it is charming and will certainly appeal to middle-aged romantic singles. S.J.H. (c) AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine
