I just read a book about a Filipina/American marriage that was different from others I've read. It's biographical and describes the author's problems with divorce and finding another woman online which is not different from others but well written and interesting. Then he writes about courting overseas, and all the joy of finding new love mixed with misunderstandings and cultural differences. What's really interesting is his descriptions of their early days in the U.S. and the ups and downs of their marriage. There are many well-described dramatic events as well as humor. In the end the book is about what a treasure his Philippine wife is and the end is very moving and emotional.
It is not an ex-pat book, but has a lot so say about international dating and relationships.
The full title is: My Cebuana Sweetheart; A 90-day Fiancée/May-December love story. by R.L. Hutton
I found it on Amazon
