My Sweet Newsletter Subscribers,
The New York Times has officially reported it: Google searches for “high heels” are up; and, in all its June-gloom-shrouded glory, summer has landed. At the confluence of these two facts — and judging by the clogged freeways — Santa Barbara is crawling with townies and tourists coming out of Pandemic Hibernation. Heat wave or not, I’m definitely not ready to put on heels. I may, however, don my Chacos and slip down to East Beach to luxuriate in a new book. You might choose to do something similar. Perhaps you’re a morning reader, maybe you’re a night owl, but either way, I hope these summery suggestions strike you in just the right mood.
Sometimes summer reading calls for a little romantic heat. If that’s what you’re craving, then look no further than Talia Hibbert’s The Brown Sisters series. Each book in this trilogy (the first installment is pictured) follows the romantic pursuits of a different sister in the Brown family, and all of them are a hot (and sexy) helping of modern romance featuring representation of people with disabilities and memorable, loving relationships. (Great on audio!)
