Hello, friends!
We are easing into the patterns of early fall with the advent of school, homework, soccer and Scouts. As our unseasonably cool weather ushers in thoughts of snuggling up with a good book, I’m keeping my eyes open for some good ones. Like much of America, I survived Miley-gate with my eyesight intact, but the MTV Video Music Awards did spur my desire to read a romance novel with a musician in the mix. I checked my shelves and dove into The Summer He Came Home by Juliana Stone, and so far I am loving it. With a hero named Cain Black — how can I go wrong?
The Sheik Retold by Victoria Vane is a steamy retelling of the 1919 classic romance by E.M. Hull. What I love about this trailer is the way it’s a modern twist but pays sexy homage to the original. A privileged heiress used to getting what she wants and an alpha, arrogant sheik who takes what he wants. I loved the Middle Eastern music and the vintage-looking images.
