Amo, Amas, Amat - An Unconventional Love Story
At thirty-three, Mary Cate Randolph still believes in fairy tales. She’s been searching for Prince Charming all her life, but after she was date-raped by her last boyfriend, she is understandably cautious. When she meets tennis pro, Nick Hamilton, at her Asheville country club, she thinks she’s found the perfect man. He’s charming and intelligent, but not sexually aggressive. No wonder. It’s 1983 and unbeknownst to Mary Cate, a naïve homophobic, Nick is a closeted homosexual. Thus begins a tangled web of love, deception, and discovery that ultimately leads to Mary Cate’s transformation and realization that true love is far different from the fairy tale version.
Carter Taylor Seaton is the author of two novels, Father’s Troubles and amo, amas, amat . . . an unconventional love story, the biography of former Congressman, Ken Hechler, The Rebel in the Red Jeep; numerous magazine articles, and several essays and short stories. She has directed a rural craft cooperative, was nominated for the Ladies Home Journal “Women of the Year 1975” Award, and ran three marathons―Atlanta, New York City, and Marine Corps―after she was fifty. A ceramic sculptor living in Huntington, West Virginia, she is one of three 2013 winners of the Tamarack Fellowship awards, being recognized for sculpture and writing.
