The Love Academy Book

We are taught manners by our parents the three 'R's by our teachers and social skills by our friends and peers but who is there to school us in the nuanced ways of romance? The Love Academy located in a majestic Venetian palazzo promises just that - along with hands-on instruction in the art of amore as only the Italians know how. But is there more to the classes on 'the secrets of seduction' and 'the power of passion' than first appears? The strict confidentiality policy and overly-rapturous claims of romantic triumph have led some to believe that the Love Academy is nothing more than an imaginatively-fronted escort agency. The editor at Kenzie Jay's magazine is of this opinion and has commissioned Kenzie to go undercover and find out just what is on the Academy's curriculum. But Kenzie isn't sure she's the right person for the job. Frankly she has enough love dilemmas at home with her broody boyfriend Joe trying to pin her down to a due date when she's not even sure if she wants to spend the next nine months with him.Meanwhile Kenzie's brother Kip who has been press-ganged into providing the much-needed male angle on the story is an even more reluctant candidate having so recently had his heart broken - by a Venetian vixen no less. In just two weeks the two siblings will either uncover a money-making sham or discover true romance. Which will it be? Set in the world's most sigh-inducing city "The Love Academy" is as sparkling and as colourful as Venetian glass.
