Synopsis "The Sexy Seniors of South Branch: Tilly and Elmer - Collected Stories"
This book of fiction includes all seven of the original short stories chronicling the adventures and misadventures of Tilly and Elmer, a sexagenarian couple from South Branch, Iowa. They've been married nearly fifty years, but they're still as frisky as they were back when they were dating in high school. While they are just as frisky, they are not as thin, athletic, or flexible as they once were. Where there's a will there's a way though, and Tilly and Elmer manage to get themselves into, and usually out of, some funny, surprising, sexy, and occasionally embarrassing adventures. Skinny-Dipping Scandal: Tilly and Elmer attempt to recreate an afternoon of skinny-dipping and risky romance from their younger days. No one observed them then, but this time not all of the tweets come from the birds overhead. In Tilly and Elmer's 50th Class Reunion, each meets an old flame, but like Tilly and Elmer, their fantasy paramours are 50 years older than they once were. Tilly and Elmer revisit Las Vegas to try and recapture their lost youth. They don't come back any younger, but when they get home, they find their misadventures have made them local celebrities. In Tilly and Elmer get Crazy, Tilly reads a magazine article on how to drive your man crazy in the bedroom. By the end, both Tilly and Elmer are a little crazy. Elmer and Tilly's attempt to enjoy the intimacy of the small cab of Elmer's '52 Chevy pickup, as they did as high school sweethearts, proves more painful than it used to be in Truck Tryst. In Tilly and Elmer Get Warmed Up, they try to recreate a snowy tryst they had as teenagers, but this time, getting naked in the woods during mid-winter doesn't turn out to have the same appeal it once did. In Tilly's Afternoon Delight, Tilly spends a hot afternoon home alone reading a sexy novel. When a young, handsome woodsman arrives to trim their backyard oak tree, her afternoon's entertainment becomes more complicated, especially after Tilly loses track of how many gin and tonics she's had.
