Latin Lovers

Three short novels of romantic suspense and mysticism: The Mechanic A married, glamorous but highly volatile businesswoman seems determined to sabotage her chance of happiness with a car mechanic. At every turn, her creepy, sophisticated husband lurks - he doesn't exactly discourage his wife's new relationship. Yet he hints at dark secrets. The Ghost of Valentino A bright career woman in her twenties, who helps run her father's company, has an odd fixation on the silent screen 'Great Lover' Rudolph Valentino. Does this explain her inability to fall in love? Can no man measure up to the fantasy? Or does her Valentino obsession set a romantic ideal that protects her from settling for boring second best? As she begins to warm to the living, breathing versions of the opposite sex, she has reasons to wonder whether she's haunted by Valentino's ghost. The Mystery of Carmen A strange force draws a frustrated romantic fiction writer to an Italian village. Here, he seeks inspiration to write a 'true' story of love's passion, not just some fanciful nonsense. A series of weird encounters with an elusive Spanish girl - who insists he reads her diary - takes him into a world where past and present become confused. A mystical story of intense emotional power. Giovanna Bozzer was born in Friuli, Italy, and now lives in the UK.
