"This anthology is a keyhole that invites readers to peek into the usually private space that harbors memories of past loves. In Heartscapes over one hundred and fifty women and men of all ages tell evocative true stories about earlier sweethearts. Selected from nearly 800 entries in the annual Past Loves Day Story Contests, the stories express the hopeful, delightful and often mystical nature of attraction, as well as the heartache of parting and loss. Each of these rememberings is a gift from the writer s heart to yours, a reminder that every love is part of a personal "heartscape," etched into one s being in a place deeper than memory. The stories are rich in what they invite us to see, and feel, calling to mind what is special about our own past loves."

Enter the lives of twenty-eight women and men as they tell deeply personal stories about what they do with fond memories and feelings about past loves within their current partnerships.

Discover why heeding the conventional wisdom which advises "Don't do it" (don't share what has heart and meaning from a prior love) may inhibit the intimacy that is possible in a current relationship.
