After the Storm

Natalie Harding canβt believe that her absolutely gorgeous work colleague Stephano Romano is attracted to her. But after one unexpected, totally hot Friday evening encounter on her office desk of all places, sheβs convinced that maybe he returns the feeling sheβs harbored for him in the fifteen months theyβve worked together.
Her euphoria doesnβt last for long. The very next Monday she watches in shock as he kisses the young woman who drops him off to work at the office and then saunters in looking as though sheβd kept him up all night.
Is there an innocent explanation for the kiss and Stephanoβs bleary-eyed appearance? Did his father suffer chest pains and have to be rushed to the hospital where the doctors kept him in all night for close monitoring? Or is it just an excuse Stephanoβs using to cover his night of pleasure with another woman?

I'm a British writer who has always been fascinated by the concept of true love transcending the boundaries of race and colour. I like to touch on some of the issues each couple faces on their journey to their HEA in a fairly light-handed way that provokes thought but hopefully doesn't detract from readers' enjoyment - after all, most are looking for romantic escape, not political debate.
My stories are set in London and have a British flavour, but as the vast majority of my readers so far have been American, I've tried to accommodate them by using American English in my books where possible. The British also read a lot of American literature and have become accustomed to both spellings.
