From New York Times best-selling author Kim Karr comes a flirty new love story. The whole stethoscope-and-white coat thing isn't my cup of tea. I prefer a man with an artistic vein in his body and 9-to-5 hours. And I can definitely do without the half-lidded, sleepy bedroom eyes. (Okay, so those are kind of sexy.) Tall, dark, and handsome doesn't change the fact that he's arrogant, cocky, and rude. Not that I care, but he's made it clear he wants nothing to do with a quirky girl like me, which is why he said no. Turns out no isn't an option.

Le paludi pontine sono terra di città nuove, "trionfali" e desolate, che nessun turista visitava fino a ieri. Sono un alveare di contadini, gente che parla in romanesco e ricorda in veneto, spediti lì dal Duce - quello "buono", quello che mieteva il grano - a bonificare stagni e pantani. Che poi, mica la voleva, lui, Littoria. Lui si accontentava di qualche borgo rurale, perché gli italiani sono un popolo di agricoltori. Ma alla fine ci si è affezionato, e anche ora che si chiama Latina il suo fantasma ci si aggira sempre, di notte, a bordo d'un rumorosissimo Guzzi 500-Falcone sport. Controlla che tutto vada bene e che la gente del posto non combini troppi casini. Perché "di là" vogliono caricarlo pure dei peccati loro. In fondo è a causa sua che abitano quel brandello di Lazio. Perfino il sindaco è un uomo suo.
