Review: You gotta meet this Englishman!  More than a romance; great characters, pace, writing.

This was so much more than a romance novel!  The main characters were incredibly vivid, and the author conveyed their depth and complexity to a degree that more than captured my heart and soul. The main male character is a captivating man (to say the very least) -- very British, an aristocratic type but very down-to-earth, compassionate, passionate, articulate, comfortable in his skin, yet with a slight flaw or two.  The main female character and many sub-characters are so vividly painted and interesting, I want them in my life (but only if I can first have that Englishman!).Set in Boston in the mid 1980's, the culture & music of the time comes through loud and clear, as well as the color and activity of Boston, itself (especially the Back Bay area).  There are aspects of various kinds of music (mostly from the '80's), and also of vintage clothing (which I found to be really fun).  I'm eagerly hoping for a sequel -- or other novels -- from this author. Note to author:  I will never tire of the Englishman, or characters like him.Perfectly edited.  This author has a knack for clarity in her writing, and for keeping it interesting and exciting, yet real.  The conversations were very natural, and it was always clear who was speaking.  The flow was perfect!  Few authors can paint characters like those in this story!
