Michael and Catalina: a Love Story Francis Theriault

Once a romanticist, always a romanticist, and Michael Ouellette in his late sixties and now living in Colombia meets a much younger women and tentatively falls in love. He discovers there are other problems besides the age difference to deal with; Americans living in Colombia who resent the relationship for personal reasons, the language difficulties hampering thoughtful communications and a mother who loves her daughter and feels the relationship is wrong. Set in the beautiful city of Medellin, Colombia, Michael finds that cultural differences can be hard to adjust to but can also help when two people, completely different, find strangely enough they have so much in common. Love finds its own way.
