Disappointing read on romance (is that really possible ;o))... Kirsty Baily gets the task of investigating whether or not the Love Academy, based in Venice, is what it says it is – a place where people learn to appreciate romance – or whether it is actually a luxury bordello (is it called that in English). She brings her brother, who got his heart broken in Venice, with her – and sets out to investigate…
Review from amazon.co.uk:
Do you have enough romance in your life? Journalist Kirsty Bailey would have to answer no. She has the essential starter kit – a boyfriend – but somehow Joe seems to have skipped the vows of for better/for worse and gone straight to for granted. But then just as she’s on the verge of settling for a swoon-free existence, Kirsty’s magazine sends her to a majestic Venetian palazzo to attend the much gossiped-about Love Academy… Her undercover mission? To prove her editor’s theory that this ‘school for singles’ is nothing more than an escort agency with a sexy accent and fancy glass chandeliers. But what if her editor is wrong and their promise of true amore is for real? Will Kirsty be able to resist the kind of moonlit temptations she’s been dreaming of for years, or is her relationship with Joe going, going, gondola? If you think Casanova was a bad boy, just wait until you see what Cupid has in store for Kirsty…
