This beautiful coffee table book presents stories and photographs of couples who found true love in the second half of life. It also includes an Addendum, with a Words of Wisdom section containing advice from these couples, to those looking for love--and another section, Advantages, describing the many ways an autumn romance can satisfy and delight. Everyone in the book was 50 or older when they connected romantically. The couples hail from all over the U.S., from diverse backgrounds and occupations but one common thread unites them: all feel they have found the love of their life at ages when it was least expected. Autumn Romance is unique because up until now, photographs of older couples in love have been hidden. This book's beautiful black and white photos easily convince readers that passion and romance can are very much alive at older ages. The book comes from the author's heart, but it is born of her own experience. Happy and satisfied with her life at the time, Denker, who had weathered three failed marriages, did not really entertain the idea of marrying again until she got to know her future husband online. She felt as though she were the only one lucky enough to have found the path to true love in her 60s until she started meeting other people who, she says, were grateful to have found a soul mate, a passionate love, at this time in their life. The book concludes with Denker s own love story. Lavishly illustrated with photos, beautifully designed, this book presents the real world--funny, fascinating, moving stories of real people--within an aesthetically pleasing format. The images in Autumn Romance embody the groundbreaking nature of the book: instead of looking away from age, as we have been taught, the photos allow readers to look age in the face and see that love still resides there. Denker says, What is amazing and I didn't know this before I did the interviews is that very often this late-life love is healing and transformative, triumphing over mistakes made and hurts suffered during our earlier lives. It is her belief and hope that the stories in Autumn Romance will change someone s life just as love does.
