I barely managed to stop this from turning into a fan girl moment for Elizabeth Lowell. It is so rare that I find someone who shares my outrageous fandom for that author - and here is Adriana ready to talk about her for days.
BUT we had more important things to talk about - A Tropical Rebel Gets the Duke currently a USA Today Bestseller! Adriana gets very real about ending a series and how writing this series in particular was both a labor of level and very hard. And how those two things can be true at the same time. We talk about our fascination for historical medical research particularly when it comes to women's health - a really important aspect of her heroine Aurora.
We also talked about how hard it is to start a novel with a sex scene - which Adriana does VERY well in this book. It's a hard needle to thread for a couple in a third book. This is a fascinating Historical romance - highly recommend.
Paris, 1889
Physician Aurora Montalban Wright takes risks in her career, but never with her heart. Running an underground women’s clinic exposes her to certain dangers, but help arrives in the unexpected form of the infuriating Duke of Annan. Begrudgingly, Aurora accepts his protection, then promptly finds herself in his bed.
New to his role as a duke, Apollo César Sinclair Robles struggles to embrace his position. With half of society waiting for him to misstep and the other half looking to discredit him, Apollo never imagined that his enthralling bedmate would become his most trusted adviser. Soon, he realizes the rebellious doctor could be the perfect duchess for him. But Aurora won’t give up her independence, and her secrets make her unsuitable for the aristocracy.
When dangerous figures from their pasts return to threaten them, Apollo whisks Aurora away to the French Riviera. Far from the reproachful eye of Parisian society, can Apollo convince Aurora that their bond is stronger than the forces keeping them apart?
