Sometimes this format in a book is truly engaging...this one sounds like it would be. Thanks for sharing...and here's mine: “THE AFTER WIFE”
ReplyDeleteHmm, sounds like an interesting book, I haven't heard of it before.
ReplyDeleteCheck out my Friday 56
Interesting, definitely a case of buyers beware. :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful cover art with excellent choice in names. I once knew a gal from the south that called everyone, 'sugar'! I like the sound of exchanging warm words to one another on paper.
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting 56, my husband and I enjoy studying religion, but have never caught this one little fact, and now that I think of it, it's actually quite true! Thanks for picking at my brain :)
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend Sandra :)
I like the sound of this one...and the title.
ReplyDeleteI hear the humor in this already. Happy reading and have a lovely weekend.
ReplyDeleteDecember 10th is my birthday! :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!
I love that beginning and I love the cover.
ReplyDeleteCute title too. I hope it is enjoyable. It sounds fun...love letters will make it extra good. :)
ENJOY your reading weekend.

ReplyDeleteSounds like a lovely read. Intriguing and short - just what I'm looking for! Thanks for sharing, and thanks for the blog visit.
ReplyDeleteHello Sandy and All,
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for featuring "Dear Sugar," one of the stories in my "The Angel of Death" series. This epistolary piece of writing has become a very popular Kindle short among Amazon readers.
When I wrote it I wanted the reader to approach the plot with an open mind as to the sex of the protagonists, and so chose androgynous names for the characters. But then perhaps this is one of the technical aspects only we writers find interesting!
The story itself is a love triangle that will break your heart. Don't read it if you've never been in love!
Thanks all for taking part and commenting. In closing, let me share an excerpt from a review. I love it!
"I failed to see the Angel of Death coming (Isn't that how it should be?) When it came, I cried. Spontaneously. Me, the ex-Marine."
Haha sounds like wise advice! Thanks for stopping by my blog! :)
ReplyDeleteThe names just make me smile -- Sugar, Cayenne ... they make me hungry!
