Fortysomething Laura Livingston, an expert on the libraries
of British authors, has two loves: old books and delicious
food. Reared by her philosopher father on the maxims of
Epicurus, Laura believes in self-control and moderation, but
when she travels to London on a research leave, sexy Irish
journalist James Whelan has a banquet of erotic delights on
the menu. Never-married Laura falls hard for James, a notorious
ladies' man whose seduction techniques involve an exquisite
meal at Le Loup ("The Wolf"), a French restaurant where the
seating arrangements are designed for lovers, and a sensuous
lesson on how to smoke a cigar. Their piquant flirtation
turns into a red-hot affair, but can it last? She’s a
vegetarian; he’s an enthusiastic carnivore. She’s a
feminist, and he’s a bossy alpha male who thinks that a
Grand Cru Montrachet and a beautiful woman have something in
common: they’re both made to be laid down. And what about those hints he keeps dropping about how he
wants to take her over his knee? Laura's research on
Alexander Pope leads her to the posh Knightsbridge library
of the Porteous family, and to Belmont Hall in Yorkshire
during the grouse shooting. But when someone in the Porteous
family is murdered and James goes after the story, Laura
learns that summer love can burn as well as sizzle. "London
Broil" will appeal to anyone who appreciates antiquarian
books, gourmandise, and delicious sex. Not necessarily in
that order.
