Summary

Married twice, each time for 18 years, Richard began online dating at the age of 64, after the end of his second marriage. Lost in the cyberspace of strange faces and distant places, he chronicled his journey to discover a true soul connection. Many years, many encounters, and countless lonely nights later he produced Lonely Heart, Will Travel in a cathartic effort to heal his own wounds while helping others to navigate the quagmire of finding real love.

Funny and heartwarming

I've read all of Richard's books. Hog Fever caught me as I too was a Harley riding forty-something in London, Never Again as I am now building a house, and Lonely Heart, Will Travel as I too found myself alone in my 60's, albeit through bereavement rather than divorce. His books are all a great balance of self-deprecating humour, ironic anecdote and bizarre happenstance. This one made me nod at times because I too had experienced something similar, and it perfectly describes the arc spanning finding yourself suddenly alone and finding someone special to share your life with as a mature man. I really hope his life works out well. Richard deserves it to. Thanks for a really enjoyable book.
