Read OnlineHer Fortescue Diamond, a short story with a modern take on an age-old dilemma ...'You write such wonderful heroes in your books Alicia, I've fallen in love with every one of them so far. So, how come you still haven't found a hero of your own?''That's because the heroes in my stories are make-believe men. No real man could live up to them.''Well of course they're not real Luvvy, you're a fiction writer. But writing about impossibly handsome, heroic types in your books shouldn't stop you from finding one in real life.''But Polly, real-life heroes just don't exist. Or, if they do, they're as rare as ... the Fortescue Diamond.'Rare? Maybe ... but just how perfect must the right man be?
