Research can be so embarrassing.

Do you remember Harkness, PI?
Thanks to
ficfinishing, I have one scene left to write. The big, smushy, final declaration waltz off into the sunset scene.
So I went to the library to do some research and get it right.
By the way, Mills and Boon, a little variation in the titles would be very pleasing. The Greek-Italian Millionaire Tycoon's Secret Mistress's Wedding Baby Proposal of Revenge is all very well, but when every single book on the shelf is called that it's kind of difficult to differentiate.
Still, I did manage to find all four of the Secret Agent/Serial Killer/Supernatural options.
*headdesk*
Does Liverpool library just not stock the Nocturne set? (Oops, showing too much knowledge here... Gonna shut up and try finish this fic now...)

And they're usually available for 20p or so in charity shops. XD Don't pay any more than that. It's not worth it, I tell you!
I feel kinda guilty now. I know too much. ^_^'
