Re: the Napoleon obsession, I highly recommend reading "The Spy's Reward" by Nita Abrams. I've probably read 100 historical romances where Waterloo takes place during the story, and even a few where his invasion of Russia was part of the plot. But this is the only book that revolves around the Hundred Days, as he marches across France after escaping from Elba. The only problem is, this is the 5th of a series, and it really helps to have read at least #1 and #3. Unrelated: I visited Corsica a few months ago and visited his family home which is now a museum; it's where he was born, and I saw the bed he slept in!
Oh thank you for the recommendation!! I've read so many Waterloo ones, which I love when it is done well, but you're right, very few Hundred Days ones.
I'm dreaming of my next European trip to be Napoleon themed--I'm dying to go to Malmaison!
