Lessons in French by Laura Kinsale

"The fellow howls at the moon and drinks the blood of innocent babes, I assure you. I haven't caught him at it, but that's only because I'm afraid to go out after dark."
"How vexing. But he makes such excellent wine from your grapes."
"Oh, magnificent wine!" he said affably. "It's my belief that he's sold his soul to the devil."
"No wonder you keep him on." She nodded, buttering bread. "It can't be easy to find someone with such impressive credentials."

For me, it's all about the banter between the characters, and this book had my repeatedly chuckling out loud. The ending wandered a bit, but I thoroughly enjoyed Callie and Trev (and Trev's mother!). I will definitely be looking for more books by this author. (Although not when I have other things that need to get done - I had too hard of a time putting this one down, which is a very nice problem to have.)
