Absolute Obsession is a novel about love, loss and how decisions that a person makes in life affect others. Rose is a forty something woman who is relatively happy in her marriage but has dreams of Michael, a Hollywood star, who she ends up writing a letter to after she reads an article about him. Rose does not think that Michael will even read the letter but he does and calls her and they start having regular phone conversations. She is honest with her husband and tells him about the calls and of course he isn't happy. What starts out as flirtation ends up going farther than either Rose and Michael had expected.Rose has to make a decision on what she wants and she tells Michael that she can no longer talk to him and that she loves her husband.What happens next is a story that takes the reader through the loss, heartbreak and happiness that takes place for Rose and Michael. At times bittersweet, heartbreaking and at others happy, joyous and sensual story about two people who hope that their dreams can come true. I liked it very much. Just make sure that you have a box of tissues near....
