Description
KWS Publishers announces their new Astor Place Genre Fiction series, a re-introduction of forgotten classics of mystery, romance, science fiction, and the western published since 1945. To introduce the series, KWS presents three works by romance writer Elaine Gordon: Intimate Terms (1988); The Possession (1998); and her latest work, The Pygmalion Complex, published here for the first time.
The Pygmalion Complex: Romana leaves her home in Chicago and moves to New York when she learns that her husband is divorcing her to marry his pregnant mistress. She meets Kent Cunningham, a fashion designer who recognizes, under Romana’s somewhat dowdy suburban exterior, both her beauty and her potential. The two eventually fall in love, but their love is thwarted by an insurmountable hurdle.
About the Author
Elaine Gordon was raised in south Florida and now lives in Chicago. Formerly a photographer’s model and an interior designer, she is now a wife, mother, avid sportswoman, and a committed writer: she is at work on a fourth novel, set in Los Angeles.
