Is there anything better than an alpha man with a secret romantic streak? My B&N column this week is about five utterly wonderful novels in which a strong, silent type is hiding a romantic streak so deep and wide it will have you teary. And may I just add that Gowan, my hero from Once Upon a Tower, would fit right into that category? Here’s the quote I would have used if I added Tower to that list: “You’re my heart, Edie. My everything.”
