Come Back, My Love - Romantic Gift for Her, Anniversary Present, Long Distance Relationship Keepsake - Perfect for Valentine's Day, Birthday Surprises & Rekindling Love

More than a typical romance, 'Come Back, My Love' has a poignant, memoir-ish dynamic. The plot is certainly hopping with steamy action from all of the chief characters -- Dean Borden, Lizbeth, Gillian, Jesse, et al. -- but there are challenging moments here as well. Moreover, the flow of the work is one that encourages the reader to look beneath the various social "sketches" and confront the reflective quality of the writing.There are lush, dark secrets here. Set in the lovely Carmel Valley region of Northern California, the story takes the reader through the distraught, hot, and sometimes overwrought lives of several local denizens. The protagonist is one Rex Borden, Dean of a fictional college who must face a harrowing past while dealing with the tumult of the present and also with future uncertainties. Another character, Lizbeth, is a real piece of work. You'll have to "read" her to believe her. This book has it all -- sex (tastefully but tantalizingly envisioned), betrayal, greed, shattered and shattering relationships, and even lesbians. Most of all it has love. The occasionally florid writing style actually adds to the moist atmosphere of this sweeping, chaotic love story. Heartfelt and evocative, with characterizations that are always intriguing, 'Come Back, My Love' is a great beach-steaming read or even a fireside "adventure" -- so long as you have a snifter of expensive Cognac in hand. Give it a try.
