Emma Darcy is the pseudonym created by the married writing team of Wendy (1940-2020) and Frank Brennan (1936-1995). Their life journey has taken as many twists and turns as the characters in their stories, whose international popularity has resulted in over sixty-million book sales. With more than a hundred titles, Emma Darcy appeared regularly on the Waldenbooks bestseller lists in the U.S.A. and in the Nielson BookScan Top 100 chart in the U.K.

Wendy was born 28 November 1940 in Australia. Her sister was the novelist Maureen Mary (Miranda Lee). Her father was a country school teacher and brilliant sportsman. Her mother was a talented dressmaker. She obtained an Honours degree in Latin and initially worked as a high school English/French teacher. She married Frank Brennan, an Australian businessman born in 1936. She changed careers to computer programming before marriage and motherhood settled her into a community life. She was reputedly the first woman computer programmer in the southern hemisphere.

As voracious readers, the step to writing their own books seemed a natural progression and the challenge of creating exciting stories was soon highly addictive. They were published since 1983. In 1993, for the Emma Darcy pseudonym's 10th anniversary, they created the "Emma Darcy Award Contest" to encourage authors to finish their manuscripts. After the death of Frank Brennan in 1995, Wendy wrotes books on her own. She lived in a beachside property on the central coast of New South Wales, and liked to travel extensively to research settings and increase her experience of places and people.

Wendy Brennan passed away on December 21, 2020. She is survived by her children, grandchildren, and sister, writer Miranda Lee.

An HP romance with a grown-up heroine and a grown-up hero?! Will wonders never cease?! AND it still managed to have HP crazysauce? How did it manage that?!

Emma Darcy did an amazing job of writing Jayne and Dan. Their problems were real problems caused more by their upbringings than anything superficial. The two had to actually work through their conversations with actual, tough conversations. And it wasn't a one-and-done type of thing. These two actually had to work for their HEA. They had to listen and compromise with one another.

The really shocking thing was that the book did manage to retain the crazysauce this brand is known for, even with a more mature hero and heroine. Darcy just focused that in the direction of the villain character with a turn in the narrative in the last quarter of the novel.

The book is still typical HP fair, but with an unusual hero and heroine. They behave like grown-ups, guys! GROWN-UPS!

This was a unique romance because of the setting and the hero's occupation, China and explosives expert. It was a fun read as well with good chemistry between the protagonists.

I thought Dan was wonderful. His relationship with his adopted child was so sweet and cute. And he displayed true heroism as well in the latter portion of the book, kicking some serious butt like an action star. He rescued Jayne after she was kidnapped and stashed on a private jet by an amorous, wealthy admirer.

Jayne was a likable, strong-willed heroine. I liked how she wasn't consumed by her career even though it was important to her. Having fun is as important as working hard in my opinion.

I also liked how Dan and Jayne were celibate during their estrangement (at least that's what I recall). I hate it when the married hero is unfaithful to the heroine while apart especially if the marriage has been consummated.

The conflict between Jayne and Dan was believable but, like many issues in Romancelandia, their separation could have been prevented with a good talk. This discussion finally occurred after their reunion and they're able to repair their marriage.

"Last Stop Marriage" is the story of Jayne and Dan.

A beautifully mature romance between an estranged couple. They separated because of their inability to communicate their needs to each other- and the heroine leaves feeling desolate. Two laters later, work reunites them, but this time with a baby in tow..

I don't want to give away much- but with complex and wonderfully written characters, this is a sweet romance worth enjoying- sans misunderstandings and OW/ OM trope- with passion, drama, and a cherub infant. Worth your time!

4/5
