Wow! Great list! I'm going to keep that for reference

[shemmelle]

I just adore the fact you are introduced to Justin in ToS in Red high heels....and then despite what you expect from that you get JUSTIN the Duke of Avon...bad arse extrodinaire.

But ACM has Rule! and Pelham! and Rules secretary... (Dysart is in AL isn't he?) See even if I got annoyed with the silly gambling heroines, I'd read it just for them ;)

And Yeah can we have a burning for Cousin Kate...I think i read somewhere that was one of her 'I have to write it for the contract' books? I hope it is...because otherwise....

[sofies]

Well - you've got a point - Rule rules. I just skim over the parts where the heroine is behaving stupidly and get to the good parts.

I honestly always speed up to read the bits with (apart from Rule) Pelham who cracks me up and Lethbridge...I adore the scene at that place called Maiden something or other.

Maidenhead

Sister lives in same County (Kent). Can’t understand why I keep on asking to go there.

Don’t forget the mincing

I mean how many people can get away with calling such a (I know this is insipid but don’t want to think) bad boy Justin?

I repeat my Hugh luvs Justin comment.

I’ve ended up with 4 copies of Cousin Kate – don’t ask

Dysart and Phelam and to some extent Sherry from Friday’s Child are the same character but I still love them (like Emily and Bagpuss)

Sprig Muslin - could never relate to a hero called Gary - bad school memories

Sylverster; Black Sheep; Bath Tangle - GH went through a bit of a brick shit-house with a monobrow hero phase, didn’t she?

False Colours

[legrandeval]

a teensy bit Oedipal I always thought (and sod the spelling).

Sylvester had dead twin bro, didn't he?

Re: False Colours

[shemmelle]

Yeah..... and how Sylvester loved that twin...

Even though he had a stupid wife.

So vapid

[legrandeval]

It's not just us, is it. GH subtext sometimes not to sub.
