'Have really enjoyed the read. A number of my training mates are also reading it, and it has created quite a lot of discussion while running/cycling and over coffees/beers. We have definitely picked up some training tips and also probably made us reflect on why we do this type of sport....personally I think his honesty makes it a book well beyond multisport.' - Matt Cowie, Weekend Warrior

This isn't just another love story. Generically, perhaps, but otherwise not. It is indeed a story about love, falling in love, being in love, experiencing love in all of its manifold, unpredictable aspects with its roller coaster emotions, its exhilarating highs, its heartbreaking lows and its gut-wrenching uncertainties. But the difference and the reason why I believe the reader will kvell over this tale and find it all but un-put-down-able is because this is a story about mature love, venerated love- old love, if you will, to put it plainly....In short, how hope springs eternal, and how we all are truly as young as we think we are..."This is a great book. For anyone who wants to believe there is still magic in the world and that love can happen at any age, this is a must read." Vikki Walker, USA, July, 2016

"How long has it been since you last did it? Do you want it?" The first time we met, he circled around my waist and charmingly asked me in my ear. Until a long time later, I wondered if I had fallen in love with him, or if I had simply fallen in love with the lust he had given me and was unable to extricate myself. He was the shiny fifth brother of the Diamond King. He wanted what kind of woman he didn't want, but he had to force his way through a married woman like me. His enthusiasm made me feel like a moth to a flame, and I didn't care even if my body was smashed to smithereens ...
