In this highly anticipated novel,

VELMA, best selling author, Bob
Fields ‘51 deviates from his
tales of youthful adventures to

a captivating romance novel.

The love story begins in a small town in northern Maine, when Mimi-an
attractive, bright, fun loving nursing student meets Chad, a handsome,
athletic, intelligent young college student. The relationship begins with a
casual meeting at the town library. But the intense chemistry between the two
leads to a passionate love affair.

Early in the affair, Chad convinces Mimi to go to Boston with him for a
weekend. The couple goes first class staying in upscale hotels eating in the
finest restaurants and attending concerts and shows.

The intense chemistry between the two leads to a passionate love affair
spanning several months and many miles. A clandestine trip between the
young lovers has unintended consequences, leading to a separation the two
struggle to overcome.”

Fields writes the consummate love story. He cleverly conveys the drastic,
sometime tragic events that befall Mimi and Chad and shows how adverse
circumstances can be overcome by love.

VELMA is not a love at first sight story, first love, or puppy love tale. It is pure
life-lasting magical love with an unforgettable ending.
