Reading romances has exposed me to a number of interesting occupations. Such is the case in Bettye Griffin s Love Affair . Austin Hughes is a co-owner of Wallace and Hughes, a consulting company with offices in Colorado and New York. The firm does quality assurance work for the hospitality industry.
Agents travel throughout the world, often under assumed names or profiles.
They go on cruises, check into hotels, eat at restaurants and go to clubs and other entertainment to evaluate the facilities and the service. It s a dirty job, but somebody s got to do it. Wallace and Hughes has just received a major contract to survey hotels in West Africa. It is quite a coup and Ozzie is excited about making his first trip to Africa. His joy is short-lived.
