One Saturday morning, a woman packs a suitcase and walks out the door leaving behind a husband of 35 years. So begins the clock on a year like no other in his first 60. Handed a life do-over, everything is on the table as he considers overhauling his old self and plotting a new future. This new, old bachelor decides to wade into the dating pool of other lonely middle-agers and gets up to speed on the ways of modern love. He meets a woman named Wendy on a dating site for the 55+ crowd. It is an unlikely union of opposites, a romance between a cautious and sensible college professor and a quirky, adventurous woman. She comes with her own unique story of loneliness and searching. With her husband in decline from Alzheimer's, the author finds himself navigating a unique ménage à trois: a married man waiting for divorce and a married woman who is in love with two men, old and new, herself a widow in waiting. My Year with Wendy is a story about second loves and second acts, the felicities of finding romance late in life, and learning to move on without forgetting. Told with humor and poignancy, the author shares his unique year with observations on starting over, the vagaries of aging, the joy and complexities of togetherness in middle age, and the nature of love itself. And from the devastation of Alzheimer's is revealed the tenacity of the human heart for love. By year's end, the author will come to know the miracle and mystery of the human spirit and be granted a precious glimpse into what could be the most powerful force in the universe.
