Natalie knows waiting tables in her half-sister's small
French bistro in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, is not putting her
closer to her dream of managing a fine restaurant and
finding the polished and sophisticated man of her dreams.
Natalie does not consider herself a snob, but her half-
sister is pushing her into the arms of Quinn O'Brien, a
journalist in New York City who always looks like he slept
in his clothes.
Quinn is extremely attracted to Natalie, but he's afraid to
really "go for it." First of all, he has never pursued
anyone this high-class before. Second, she would want a
real relationship and that would interfere with the demands
of his journalism career. No woman likes to come in second
to a man's job.
Natalie accepts a job in Quinn's folk's Irish pub, since it
puts her closer to the job opportunities she so desires.
She soon comes to realize that Quinn makes her heart
skitter and his wrinkles and messed-up hair are very
attractive to her. Quinn pours on the charm and Natalie
melts.
Quinn is following a very important, but dangerous, story
that is putting his life at risk. Natalie wants to be
understanding, but she's extremely worried about his
safety. Quinn is fearless and this story is very important
to his career. Can their new and fragile relationship
survive?

the friends we have come to love in Brooklyn. Whether it be
the Blades hockey team, the Italian Dante family or the
Irish O'Briens, they are always a delight, always charming
and always fun to read. The characters in WITH A TWIST are
a hoot and the plot captivating, which makes this love
story exceptional. Don't miss this latest heartwarming
romance by Ms. Martin. I never miss anything she writes.
