Synopsis: 2nd EditionTate D'Angelo always thought he knew who his father was: beloved doctor, devoted husband and father.... Everyone at the funeral shared the same glowing stories of a kind soul. So when his father's old college buddy, Randy, approaches him after the service, Tate expects to hear echoes of the same. Instead, he gets a lifetime's worth of letters that tell a different tale and cause him to view his father--and his family--in a whole new light. The truth, about a secret romance kept buried for decades, astonishes him. Overwhelmed by grief and confusion, Tate is unsure if he can bear learning how the lives of two men entwined over the years, but he reads on anyway, discovering more to value, more to respect, and most importantly, more to love about the man who raised him.A Bittersweet Dreams title: It's an unfortunate truth: love doesn't always conquer all. Regardless of its strength, sometimes fate intervenes, tragedy strikes, or forces conspire against it. These stories of romance do not offer a traditional happy ending, but the strong and enduring love will still touch your heart and maybe move you to tears.First Edition published by Amber Quill Press/Amber Allure, 2013.
