A Fine Romance

                              excerpt from the novella

        She was young; he was young.  They fell in love, they married.  Life

was heaven for a while.  Then reality slogged in on leaden feet.  Nothing

lasts forever.

         He had met her in New York.  She was ‘society’, but poor relations.

And tired of being poor.  He was rich but innocent, shrewd in business, yet

naive in love. The son of the Wolf of Wall Street and heir to a chain of hotels,

he loved being the boss at twenty-six.  He loved his work, and he loved her.

         But she was a dream.  His dream.  A dream of a home that he never

knew, of a wife loyal and compliant, yet strong in her own right.  His work demanded that he travel, with his bride, to establish himself as the new head

of the Dekoster Hotels Corporation.  No longer in his father’s shadow, behind

his mother’s skirts, he had to show himself to be the dynamic young executive who could set their faltering corporation on the path to success.
