Michael Carlucci, the hot, young musical genius behind the successful rock band, NinetySeven, knows that he's found the woman for him. Diane Matthews is not just beautiful and smart, she's got an infectious passion for everything in her life, from her three daughters to her new play. For him, the search is over. He knows they belong together. For Diane, it's not as simple. She's almost twenty years older than Michael. She's not interested in remarrying - she's very happy with her life just the way it is, thank you very much. But she can't deny the growing attraction between them - and it's not just his touch that she craves. But it's not until Michael is gone and an old love returns that she realizes just what he meant to her. He said he would love her forever. Can she trust that? Or should she find a safer route to happiness? A Different Kind of Forever is the story about two complicated people finding - and trying to hold on - to love.
