There’s a poignant moment in my Contemporary Romantic
Mystery—Monogamy Twist—when Luke Salieri senses things just aren’t going as
well as he would like with Rhia. He appreciates she’s obsessed with finding out
why Amelia Greywood named him as the sole beneficiary in her will.
He’s happy
to be renovating Greywood Hall and restoring it to its former glory but he’s
not so cheered that Rhia is working herself to the bone to catalogue the myriad
of artefacts that came with the house.

He was as frustrated as Rhia over the
difficulty in finding out why Amelia chose him but it began to matter less when
he had an inkling that there was a skeleton in his family closet that he didn’t
really want disturbed. Now he doesn’t like that Rhia is working all hours to
sleuth out the answers that just don’t seem to want to be found out. He’s
worried that she’s working so hard that she’s making herself sick.
Rhia needs a diversion so he decides to take her on a flying
visit to Rome
where he meets up with some of his father’s family- Italian relatives he’s not
seen for a while.
The visit to Rome for Luke
and Rhia is only a short one, about the same as my recent one
to Rome
of a mere 3 days. Although I’ve not mentioned it in the novel I imagine Luke’s
whirlwind tour might have included going to the Colosseum, the Ancient Roman Forum
and maybe the Vatican Museums since they’re the most visited places…at least I think
they are judging by the crowd sizes when I joined the throng!
