Comment #20's Translation: So far I have only read “A gentleman at heart” and I have found it very interesting.

Obviously I hope that the series can soon continue to give a story to all the Bedegrayne siblings and to the other characters. I like very much Nevin, the brother of Keanan, and I hope that sooner or later also him can set himself.

I'd like to know if Barbara has one or more preferred authors, and which are, obviously. And then I'd like to know how many historical researches (customs, dresses, characters also real who we meet in hers books) she must do for every book and above all where she find inspiration for the names of her characters, wich are often unusual (or at least I do not have find them often in other stories).

And why (apart the main characters of hers books that I hope they can have an happily ever after end) marriage is described so negatively (abuses, physical violences, betrayals) and why, if it is happy (see aunt Molly or the patriarch of the Bedegrayne), it soon ends with widowhood.

Thanks, Cristina
