The Year I Learned To Text by Juliet Montague


During the reign of America’s first Black President and the continuation of the War on Terror, a post-menopausal Republican-Christian comedienne/actress/realtor living in a small bungalow in Hollywood is absorbed in her personal changeover.  When a Persian Muslim man, twenty-two years her junior, enters her life, she grapples with fear and prejudice. But above all these, it is the addictive chemistry of love that disrupts her orderly celibate life and changes her forever.

As her story unfolds in explicit sexual situations, but always with the grace of romance and the honesty of humor, readers will uncover the mystery of sexual chemistry that overrides age, religion, and moral codes. It also tells a journey of communication which implies that modern technology has put clubs back into the hands of Neanderthals and their women.

Surprising readers with the possibility of a spiritual connection between the unlikeliest of lovers, The Year I Learned to Text is a modern-day love story that will embrace every girl that ever hoped to change a boy and every boy that ever loved her.
