Spin the Plate: a Novel Donna Anastasi 第3 版

This contemporary urban romance is not the usual bodice-ripper romance type where an unnaturally gorgeous heroine meets a buff, alpha-male for hot nasty sex. Not even close. Jo is a survivor of a bleak and abusive childhood. She channels her pain and rage into weight training and roams the city streets at night as a powerful vigilante. While she is more than capable of defending herself against physical danger, she is defenseless against the memories of the past that torment her. Francis is a mysterious man she meets on the subway train. He doesn?t have a regular job and is still living at home. But he is gentle, likeable, friendly, intelligent, sensitive, respectful, generous, patient, and understanding. Just what a brave, but damaged soul like Jo needs. In this story, the average-guy hero battles to win the battered heart of the wary, edgy, less-than-perfect heroine. ?Spin the Plate is a fast-paced, edgy, darkly comic tale of resilience, romance, and redemption that breaks over you in waves. All you can do is gasp, stay afloat, and enjoy the ride.? -- Holly Robinson, author of The Wishing Hill and Sleeping Tigers
