THE RINUCCIS ARE BACK!

I’ve had so many letters from readers wanting another Rinucci book that I just had to write one.  I give you, ACCIDENTALLY EXPECTING!

   I loved doing the first six books about the family of brothers and half-brothers from Naples, linked by ties that sometimes seemed tenuous, but ultimately proved the strongest because there’s nothing more binding than family love.

   But I didn’t rush it.  I waited for the right moment and, sure enough, Dante Rinucci came knocking on the door of my mind, much offended that I was writing about the others but not him.  Was he less attractive, he wanted to know?  Less interesting?  Not a bit of it.  If anything, much more.  And when he’d explained his story I saw that it had to be written.

   He’s not a son, but a nephew of Toni, regarding him as a second father.  On the surface he’s charming, witty and very slightly dodgy (but in a nice way).  He sees life as “doing the quick-step with Fate” which he does with great skill.  But he’s hiding a terrible secret, one that could destroy him.

   Because of it he doesn’t really want to fall seriously in love, but he can’t help it.  Ferne is everything he desires in a woman.  She earns her living as a theatrical photographer and, through much contact with actors, has learned to look askance at life, just as Dante does.  They find each other irresistible, which makes it all the more shocking and painful when his tragedy drives them apart.

   But the discovery that they are to have a child changes everything.  They can have a future, but it will take immense courage to face down the threat lowering over them.  And only they can give each other that courage. 

ROMANTIC TIMES gave it a four stars, calling it “a diverting, sexy fantasy with its fair share of highly emotional moments.”

                               …………………………..

The English edition is published in a double volume with CINDERELLA ON HIS DOORSTEP by Rebecca Winters.  I love Cinderella stories and this one is really special.  The legend of the girl who lives in the shadows until love brings her into the light, and the right man sees that she’s really a princess, is as real and vibrant today as when the fairy tale was first created, and Rebecca Winters has given it a new charm.
