A New York City Bar
===============
This is a synopsis of the romance novel written by Seamus Clark and read by Barbara Barton.
The tale begins in the Four Seasons Supper Club, where an Irishman named Patrick O'Neil stumbles on an attractive young lady named Jennifer Alston at the bar. She likes his Irish brogue and after a few drinks agrees to join him on the dance floor.
We can skip his beautifully written banter between them. Buy the book to enjoy it later.
They both show up the next evening and things begin to heat up. Patrick shares a taxi home with her that night and impulsively Jen invites him up to her second floor Westside apartment. Of course, that leads to some well written mutual seduction and a marvelously described sex scene that ends awkwardly, and quite humorously, when they lose the condom.
They spend weeks waiting to see if Jen is pregnant. During this time span, which takes over two hundred pages of well written romance, Jen begins learning more and more about this foreigner.
It seems that Patrick is here in the city supposedly working for the Irish Republican Army (IRA), an organization that still exists. She begins to believe she's merely a plaything and if she's indeed knocked up, he'll just disappear and leave her behind to deal with the situation alone.
Of course, like most romance novels end, Patrick winds up being a super nice guy, really an undercover agent for the FBI. Jen has her period and isn't pregnant, so we find her happily thrashing around beneath him, madly in love and hoping for marriage.
The sex scenes are exquisite and leave Barb panting night after night while her husband, Bradley, toils on to get wealthy.
