Please Update: 1/28
#26) Author From a Country Never Visited:
Just For You( Escape to New Zealand #3) by Rosalind James- publ 2012 / 312 pgs!
This novel was interesting, not only for the NZ phrases, slangs, dialogue, and Maori culture, but the deep look at the sport of rugby and the differences between their professional athletes' conduct on and off the field, when compared to those in the US.
Great romance novel to read!
