Book description
In 'Lisa', Paul Buchanan is used to women falling at his feet. So
when he meets dowdy little Lisa Aitken at his publisher's office, he
is surprised when she appears immune to his charms. Piqued, he tries
again. And again. And again, until she finally relents and lets him
take her out. Pretty soon, there's something about the mysterious Lisa
that has Paul hooked. But why is she so cagey about where she goes
every weekend? What is the secret that Lisa is hiding so desperately?
In 'Political Asylum', Virginia has landed on her feet with her
first flat in London: a fabulous pad near the House of Commons, with
her best friend Jenny, and with the handsomest man in the Cabinet,
Anthony Hudson, as their neighbour. The only fly in the ointment is
Virginia's boyfriend William, whose affections towards her seem to be
cooling somewhat. Things get a little more interesting when Virginia
finds herself locked out of her flat in the pouring rain - and who
should come to her rescue but Anthony...
