Café Romance is an intense romantic novel, sprinkled with sadness, joy, adventure, betrayal, sexual tension and emotional excitement. This is a dazzling and exotic and heartwarming, down-to-earth contemporary love story about an independent, self-made woman who discovers she is falling in love with a handsome stranger; a man who rescued her from a very violent and heart-wrenching carjacking attempt. The setting is the balmy coastal city of Tampa Bay, Florida; the city my leading character has recently relocated to. The two strangers serendipitously meet again, and from that point on, by design. In time, they find themselves growing on one other. Problem is my leading lady is being pursued by another love interest, a man she befriended several years earlier. As she wrestles with her feelings for both men, she is unaware that the handsome hunk she has fallen for is keeping an interesting secret from her, and that an old flame of his still has eyes for him as well. Add to this, he has a deep longing to be reunited with his lovely estranged wife. When these issues come to light, and certain characters in my book cross paths, there is an abundance of fireworks the likes you’d expect to find at a 4th of July celebration.

A former child musical prodigy, professor of philosophy, accomplished pianist, and tutor for the daughter and niece of a very rich and powerful English nobleman, Professor Seabrook is abruptly forced to withdraw from the public eye by a circumstance so scandalous that it could cost him his very life if it ever came to light. In an effort to preserve himself he quietly retreats to a lofty English estate left to him by a wealthy uncle and takes on a new name and personage. There he remains a very private and mysterious figure living a lonely and dark secluded existence; his only contact with other human beings, the local food deliveryman and his devoted and trusted housekeeper. That is, until an unworldly and seemingly naïve 26 year old Southern American, visiting her aunt in England for the summer, shows up at his doorsteps and turns his world upside down. But is this innocent looking woman as naïve and unworldly as everyone thinks is the one question he begins to ponder.Unaware of the auricular arrangement that her mother has made, in collusion with her aunt in London, my young leading lady has no clue she is being sent to London to learn about men, love, life and her own sexuality from her more worldly and more sophisticated aunt who has retired there. It turns out that what she learns from her aunt pales in comparison to what the professor in-exile has to teach her on the subject. Virtue, commitment, passion, sexuality, and love are the subjects he exposes her to and from a man’s perspective, a man most of the townspeople has cultivated a dark and haunting legend around. In return she gives him a thought-provoking lesson on trust and love, a lesson he has forgotten over the years. It is a mutual and philosophical bond that eventually grows into something bigger and to the point it begins to shed light on his dark and lonely existence behind wrought-iron gates, and on the dark secret that put him there. Their time together also paves the way for a young woman to blossom into a mature woman. A Gothic Lesson In Love...a love story the great philosopher Socrates would appreciate.
