Dry Run for True Love - Gary Lee Kvamme - Bog

Katherine Hauswirth is beautiful, intelligent, and steady in a chaotic world. So she keeps her head in the face of the impetuous lovemaking of her handsome, ruthless, and entirely self-made employer, Sean Borg, and refuses to marry him until her parents return from Europe to add their blessing and the sanction of their class. Sean, for all his bumptious charm, turns out to be a bit of cad. Katherine's infatuation fades with increasing knowledge of her fiancé but her disillusionment is softened by the constant and adoring presence of Tony Esmond, a playboy playwright who belongs to her New York as the Italian-Irish contractor never could. Dry Run for True Love is a lively, smart urban romance that seamlessly embodies a detailed and accurate depiction of New York life in the late 1930s.
