I remember thinking at the time that I had a kind of a jones for accents like his, which is sort of Scotland and Actor and *sighs*… I'd pay him to read the phone book. Don't get me wrong. I love my husband's midwestern accent, he's all about cheeseheads and Wis-cahn-sin and beer and braaaahts, and I like the sound of it, it's homey. Seriously, only one guy is allowed to whisper in my ear at night, but I can fantasize right?

Blurb:
Max Lancaster's neighbor — his muse, the young ballerina Elena– has gone missing. Between secrets from his past and the fact that he's altering his work in his sleep, he's worried that he's lost his mind.
