        "LOVE IN TWO CITIES" BOOK ONE

        ¨"VINDICATION" BOOK TWO

        "INSURRECTION'S CHILD" BOOK THREE

        Is a CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE with "daring elements of wonder and wandering, " S.M.Proctor. "A Francophile's Dream of France", said one review, and more. It is a high suspense THRILLER!

         

        "Ross’s knowledge of opera, classical, and other styles of music, gourmet dining, and both architecture, and history make this a most interesting read.

        I enjoyed the details about the couple’s lovely and lively love life together. This is a classic story of two lovers on a quest to fight sedition and insurrection being fomented by her rich, perverted family, who have found a perfect life together despite the challenges .." FIVE STARS HILARIE S:G:

         

        The Horror of the Holocaust has left its indelible mark on Marisol's family, , dolefully complicit in the removal of the Jews of Lyon in the service of the infamous Butcher of Lyon, Klaus Barbie. Now her family is rising again supporting Neo -Fascist militias in Franceand Spain with money and propaganda and caches of weapons. It has fallen to her, Marisol Pilar de Froissart, heiress, socialite and humanitarian to stop them.

        Steven Dunning, a musician from San Francisco, is on a quest of his own, this second-tier tenor and a failure in his own eyes at least. And then Steven outrageously becomes Marisol's consort the through a quaint accident in a bistrot in the First Arrondissement. And a poetic and musical encounter in the Luxembourg. They have adventures across France, Spain and in his native California, and experience love in many forms.
         

        Where did you get the inspiration for your book’s cover? Photo Composite ¨Marisol and the memory of her GrandPere" by Joel F.

        The book cover reflects the fire of love, in Paris of course, with the young woman looking straight out at the reader. Her grandfather's horrendous past, Collaborator, murderer, Fascist... always with her! Now her family is rising again on a path to sedition and insurrection. She, Marisol Pilar de Froissart, is indomitable, she is stunningly beautiful, and she is in control. And Paris takes her to new heights.

         

        She is from Lyon, in Paris on business. Steven Dunning, our almost willing hero, is from San Francisco trying to line up concert tours for his chorus... and failing. All is put aside when they are seated across from one another in a Bistrot in the First Arrondissement and choose to spend the afternoon in the Luxembourg Gardens. And choose to be lovers.

        Also Music controls the pacing. A certain piece, a Song Cycle by Hector Berlioz, repeats throughout the novel... it is a life, called 'Les Nuits d'ETE' set to poetry of Theophile Gauthier... and their life together follows the theme of the cycle. From the Gaiety of the Springtime in which they met through... well, no spoilers.

        To my readers... I hope Steven and Marisol's story helps you reminisce about a perfect love you shared. Perhaps in Paris???

        ,,,excerpt.. "The small entry gave onto the salon. The sound of our quiet voices echoed across the room as she led me in. Perhaps I was walking into the home of a very wealthy art critic or even into a décor style salon in a museum in Paris. Art Nouveau, Belle Époque bentwood, great arches, organic, flower-carved, like vines intertwined, the sofas, large chairs, tables, of a type. Craft. But this was her home. Marisol saw the look of wonder on my face. “I see you know art, Steven.” The mantles held ceramics from Bruges and Limoges, adamantine, emerald, and turquoise blue, pastel-colored vases both rectangular and round. The floors and ceilings of polished American golden oak with Greek Key marquetry of tropical hardwoods of delicate design. Draped were custom tapestries from Gobelin of forest scenes in fabled Arcadia. The room became centered and joined together by the Courbet. At the back of the salon, museum lit, a large painting by Courbet, a dreamy scene with flashing sunset colors by a cliff on the sea obscured by clouds and mist mastered the room. A lonely barkentine cruised offshore."

         

      • A REVIEW or TWO


        Barbara Corrado Pope, mystery writer...  REVIEW! Contemporary Romance....  TREASON'S CHILD // FIVE STAR REVIEW      is a voyage through luxurious settings in France and beyond, a life of private planes, yachts, boutique hotels and Michelin-starred restaurants. At the same time, it's a story of head-over-heels love (accompanied by some daring sex scenes) between Steven and Marisol-an American musician and a French/Spanish beauty with an aristocratic background and a dazzling array of talents and accomplishments.   Add to this knowing commentary on music, art, European history and class and cultural differences (and even observations on geopolitics and French imperialism in West Africa).   With Steven's first-person narration, the character of Marisol assumes almost divine status. Throughout, there is a sense that the fortuitous intersection of Steven and Marisol's lives marks a special kind of giddy romantic bliss, but at the same time there's an intimation of tragedy as a counterpoint to their happiness.   Marisol is quite a woman, and this is quite a story!

        TREASON'S CHILD

        FIVE STARS!...
        is a classic love story loaded with tricks, spies, Insurrection! Her family’s background is filled with fascists and Nazi collaborators.. Ross depicts Steven, a man of mediocre musical talent who, after years of “playing the field,” meets the one woman who completes him.

         Marisol is a complicated, sophisticated, French heiress involved in wonderful charity work. They meet in France by sheer chance and almost immediately their beautiful romance begins.
        They quickly become a couple. and Ross’s story creates a travelogue of beautiful, and often exotic places. During their myriad vacations, they enjoy incredible epicurean delights. Rose pays tremendous detail to both the history of the regions, focusing often on places of religious and/or historical fame, and their very upscale dining experiences.  Very full of Michelin Stars!   If you liked Diane Lane's film, PARIS CAN WAIT, you will also love this Marisol Trilogy! 

        Ross’s knowledge of opera, classical, and other styles of music, gourmet dining, and both architecture, and history make this a most interesting read.

        I enjoyed the details about the couple’s lovely... life together. This is a classic story of two lovers on a quest to fight sedition and insurrection being fomented by her rich, perverted family, who have found a perfect life together despite the challenges ..
