The Letters/A Lifetime Foreign Affair by Mae Adams
It is a story of two countries, two cultures, two lives, and one love. When macho Marine Corps Colonel, Hewitt Adams, meets a beautiful Korean lady of aristocracy, Mae Yum, the fire of love ignites. Mae’s unexplained prophetic dream under her grandfather’s ginkgo tree in her youth intertwines two lives together. This powerful story is also a collection of two lovers’ letters, respect for cultures, individual lives, and respect for a union in love. It is about lovers who care deeply for each other but are willing to be under the floodlight to touch upon areas that can be detrimental to relationships and erode the self-worth and respect for partners. Full of life lessons and a tender, timeless romance, the letters capture the joys and agony that come with love while exposing the deepest secrets of their hearts. It is poignant, emotional, and at times heartrending.

Author Bio:
Mae Adams was born in 1933 as the useless second daughter in an aristocratic family. Abandoned by her mother for not being a son, her grandparents raised her in a mountain village where the family retreated upon the Japanese invasion of 1910 and attempted to eliminate all Korean royal families. Grandma gave her a pair of magic silver chopsticks to symbolize her love and protect her from poison and physical harm. After World War II, the family escaped from the Communist regime at the loss of Grandma and survived the harrowing Korean War. Mae became the breadwinner of her family, met Marine Colonel Hewitt, but left him to pursue a college education in America. She continued long-distance romance with Hewitt for three years until she married him to raise a family. She is fluent in four languages, and her life-long dream was to become a writer. Her first book is Precious silver Chopsticks, and her second is Coin for a Dream.
