The Last of the Red Hot Lovers is a memoir about falling in love at eighty. The main characters, Eva and Kurt, have known one another as children. While walking by Kurt's home on her way to church, Eva sees the curtains flutter. She giggles, knowing Kurt is watching. He's the first boy to ever kiss her as they play games at a friend's tenth birthday party. She kisses him back.
After graduating from high school together, Eva and Kurt go their separate ways, marry, and have families. Sixty-two years later, Eva (a retired paralegal) and Kurt (a retired Air Force Major) find one another, fall in love, and get married. Although most of their peers have tucked away their sexual adventures as memories, these two can't keep their hands off each other.
This memoir answers the questions - "Is love and sex as hot at eighty as it was at eighteen? Do the body parts still work?" The Last of the Red Hot Lovers captures the intimate and raw feelings each partner experiences as their romance develops. It also addresses sex and aging. Although Eva and Kurt's love is strong, they face a shattering dilemma-Kurt's adult children won't accept Eva.
