Hi Wendy, Thank you for your lovely message, I'm so glad you've enjoyed my books and hope you enjoy The Dilemma too! With best wishes

“We go downstairs and in the hall, he takes my coat from the cupboard and holds it open while I slip my arms into it. In the drive outside, he holds the car door for me and waits until I’m in. As he closes it behind me, I can’t help thinking it’s a shame he’s such a sadistic bastard, because he has wonderful manners.”
― B.A. Paris, Behind Closed Doors
