Unsuspecting Valentine by D Raven

Unsuspecting Valentine by D Raven

Middle-aged Californian Kat Mancini has lost the love lottery and paid with a broken heart so many times, she now steers clear of any romantic entanglements. Sometimes she misses being in love, but at fifty-four she's pleased to look closer to forty, and comfortable with her emotionally stable life. Professionally successful, with many friends, she's content to live with her state career, music and two cats who love her. She thinks. Who really knows with pets?

When she unexpectedly meets a younger British actor reputed to be a bed-hopping Lothario, he turns out to be nothing like his public image. Still, knowing actors are heartaches looking for a place to happen, she's surprised (and a little annoyed) to feel a spark when they shake hands.

Jamie Knight feels it, too-along with Kat's lack of interest in him. Intrigued and unaware of their age difference, he pursues a long-distance friendship with her. Eventually she warms up, but resists a growing attraction. How could love triumph over a lifetime of heartache and ambition?

A year later, her heart is overpowering her head and he convinces her they're the loves each has always wanted.

His mother, his agent, and some of his delusional fans think otherwise.

To relinquish some of her independence and trust the man who insists he loves her is one of the most difficult decisions Kat has ever had to make. Then Jamie is forced to do the same.

Dana Michaels' novel, In Your Dreams , is an unlikely, later-in-life Romance set in contemporary England and California.
