Something I tend to notice in these books

In several of my books, it turns out the heroine knows something about accounts.  She tells the hero about that, so she can have a reason to stay around and "prove herself useful" so the guy will actually let her stay.


I can't remember all the books, but it was a feature so prominent in them, so I'm gonna try to flip through them after finals (all 70-something of my books) and see which ones actually HAVE that theme.  I KNOW there's more than one.


Book #1: Tracy Ann Warren's Tempted By His Kiss
Book #2: Adele Ashworth's My Darling Caroline (added 8/9/11)


You might be asking, "Why the hell is she talking about accounting in a romance novel blog?"  Well here's my answer.


I can't do accounting.  I'm a Pre-Business major, about to be dropped down to Undeclared because I'm gettin' kicked out of the system.  From what I've heard from other business majors, Accounting is TERRIBLY HARD.  Even if you're an accounting major - you've got study groups constantly burning that midnight oil, and I have to go through about two accounting classes as part of my requirements.  I took it last semester and didn't do so well.  So why the hell do these girls in romance novels act like they know so much about accounting and students today find it so damn hard?!


It's not fair!
