Book Synopsis:
Attended by reality TV star wannabes and Southern California social climbers, Schooner Moore knows the party his wife is throwing for his forty-third birthday has little to do with him and everything to do with her social standing in Orange County. The evening turns out to hold more surprises than just his wife's Botoxed friends groping at his privates, when a conversation with his old college roommate, Beau, reveals the biggest surprise of the night.
Beau has had contact on Facebook with Mia Silver. Just hearing her name sends Schooner into a tailspin, as he is now just a Friend Request away from the one who got away when she disappeared without a goodbye, leaving him wondering why she left.
A serial failure at romance, Manhattan boutique ad agency owner, Mia, gets a blindside of her own when a Facebook Friend Request from first love, Schooner, appears in her email. Going with her gut reaction, Mia hits accept, propelling her past to catch up with her in a New York minute, as a forceful Schooner is determined to understand what tore them apart and to explore the possibility of a second chance at love.
From a 1980's Southern California college campus and a devastating first love to present day New York City, Searching for Moore explores how technology has eradicated the divide between our past and our present, and asks whether you would give up everything to reconnect with The One in a single keystroke?
My Review:
You will fall head over heels in love with SCHOONER FLIPPING MOORE and MIA SILVER cause they are the bomb, they are the perfect couple who should of been high school sweethearts and be able to tell their perfect true love story to their grandchildren about how they meet in school fell madly in love and it just went on from there, but only part of that story was true, and you will have to read the book to find out what really happened.
After 24 years unrequited love through a Facebook
connection they entangle the what when's and why for's of the tragic ending to their university relationship
that ended so abruptly and neither of them knew where the other was situated, or what their lives had become until the day Schooner found out he could contact Mia after 24 years, and then the truth unravels and that is what makes this story special.
Julie Richman this is an awesome story and I am so sorry it took me so long to write a review for you, but Id love to read more from you in the future, as this rocked.
5 absolute perfect stars from me.
