For Kelly, a busy Athenian artist and teacher, maturity means emotional ties, being 'there' for her children, meeting schedules and accepting responsibilities.Then, during a scorching Greek summer, a volcano erupts in her life and threatens everything , driving her into the arms of a stranger, revealing new heights of love, understanding and tenderness, and making her emotions run riot.True eroticism, she finds, is not the preserve of the young. But Kelly and the tall sophisticated Englishman, Gee, both know they each have a past... is their love strong enough to overcome it? Few couples have the sort of bittersweet affair experienced by Kelly and Gee, and few novels tell it as movingly as Emotions Running Riot.
