| − | First published in 2011, and story-crafting for more than twenty years, Romance author Rose Anderson shares an insight:
| |
| − | ''I have an active imagination and I write everything from children’s stories to historical fiction. As a persnickety leisure reader, I enjoy novels rich in detail that give me just enough to allow my imagination to fully kick into gear. I especially enjoy novels that feel like they were written just for me. It's hard to explain, but if you've ever read one of those, then you know what I mean. As an author, I enjoy creating stories that offer more should the reader care to delve deeper, but each stands alone as captivating read. I love words and choose them as carefully as an artist might choose a color. For an enhanced reading experience, be sure to look up whatever catches your eye. It might have been intentionally placed there to do just that. Most of my stories have a trail of breadcrumbs a reader can follow if they choose.''

| − | '''Reviews for Loving Leonardo'''
| |
| − | * "This is a well-researched story with many art references with a deft handling of a subject many writers might skirt or avoid completely. Written in a style that evokes literature of the period in which this story is set, Loving Leonardo is an erotic thriller, and an enjoyable adventure of three lusty young people striving to save both themselves and a work of art that is in itself a declaration of love."

| |
| − | * "This book pulled me in from the start and wouldn't let go. It was beautifully written. Also, when it comes to erotic, I'm a graphic kind of girl with a sextreme rating. Loving Leonardo was neither really, and yet, hands down, it was the most erotic book I have ever had the pleasure of reading. I loved the ending and the way it signaled to a sequel. I can't wait. Ms Anderson, please hurry up and write it. I'm first in the queue for a copy."
