I'm trying to find and read the first 100 Harlequin Presents. This is book #41. It was originally published in 1969 and the HP edition is from 1974. So this was a fairly old fashioned story. There was very much an element of good girls don't sleep with any man before marriage. The hero was a world renowned musician, think Tom Jones maybe. He had side burns and leisure suits with skinny legged slacks. So basically he falls for this good girl who he eventually learns to love. How much is because she won't put out I don't know. It was well written and moved along pretty quickly. Some of these old HPs are as slow as molasses but this one wasn't. ( )

Se avete già ammirato - o amato da lontano -un grande attore di teatro, una stella del cinema o un famoso cantante, capirete ancor meglio la gioia e la meraviglia di July, quando il caso le fa conoscere il suo idolo, il cantautore
Manuel Cortez. A una festa, lui l'ha guardata, ammirata, le ha parlato... Lei non desidera di più, convinta di essere, per lui, soltanto un'ammiratrice tra tante altre, una ragazzina un po' sciocca e sognatrice. Ma... e se tra il caso e la volontà dell'uomo, ci mettesse lo zampino anche il cuore?
