Affairs of the Heart Summary
Affairs of the Heart – If Only I Had Known is a collection of twelve fiction short stories. The stories are about relationships between men and women including affairs, crushes, obsessions, young/old, old/young, and past mistakes – from the voice of the male protagonist.
Following is a summary description of each of the short stories. Like a Moth to a Flame is about a guy who falls in love with a woman attracted to bad boys. The Diary is about two people who are married but obsessed with lovers from relationships prior to their marriage. The Past Returns is about a man who has a son with a girl from high school – a son he only found out about because the mother is dying of cancer. Boy Toy is about a wealthy, married cougar and a young male artist. May – December is about an older man who falls in love with a gold digger. The Affair is about a man who catches his wife in bed with his best friend and how he evolves from that experience. The Crush is about a man who runs into a girl from high school who had a crush on him – both have been married twice. The Mistake is about a man who thinks his wife has had an affair and enters into an affair himself – only to find out that his wife never had an affair. The Grey Divorce is about a couple married for more than twenty five years who find they have nothing in common after their adult children have left home. The Old Flame is about a new college graduate who asks his college girlfriend to marry him and she says no. They meet up fifteen years later and the sparks fly. An Affair with the Ex is about a divorced couple who can’t live together as man and wife, but continue to have sex even though they’re both remarried. No Drama is a concluding short story about a man and his wife who have evolved their marriage to a comfortable, relaxed, unchallenging, no drama relationship – but he is starting to miss having some drama in their lives.
