I don't remember which book the lava thing was from as they all started to blend together after a while - it's a huge pity as I wish I remembered the author so I'd know to stay away from her in the future.
The Enoch book I read had a hero with severe war-related PTSD and remarkably commonsense heroine. The Kleypas one actually felt like it involved real Victorians (and shockingly nobody was a Duke - the hero wasn't even upperclass and stayed that way). Both heroines seemed smart and heroes were in no need of reform of their morals and were hardworking. It was very refreshing (sadly, other stuff available on Kindle for Enoch was same old same old, but there are several promising Kleypas titles I plan to investigate further).
