Each of your books becomes my new favourite, although I have to say I fell in love with Davy Morgan in "Hot Rock". Does travelling through time to wait for your love count as exotic? Lipari Island in "Italian Affair" really appeals too, but your descriptions of locations evoke the sights, scents and scenes so well that I feel as though I am there. Thanks for the vicarious travel!
I love the wit and intelligence of Jane Austen's characters and of plays like "The Importance of Being Earnest". Often, these male protagonists are not alphas but betas whose conversations provide humour and whose fear of marriage is mortal. Loved "The Autumn Bride" and looking forward to 'winter'.
