Close your eyes. Fall in love. Stay there. Rumi You never know who you'll fall in love with, or why, or whether it's a good idea - ask Rowan in A Star, A Stone. A sudden rainstorm - Stormy Weather - or even an exercise class - The Queen of Heaven - can be the spark that creates abandon and exhilarating passion between two lovers. In Dolce, a full-course Italian meal prepared with love whets . . . other appetites. The stories in Perfect Need explore what love and passion can become, how they can affect two people for a moment, or for a lifetime; when they tumble into a love they never expected; when they decide it's worth the risk to stay . . . or not.
