A BLACK TIE AFFAIR, (Forever; $6.99; January 1, 2010) a witty and sexy new contemporary romance by Sherrill Bodine. This heart-tugging follow-up to Talk of the Town will appeal to fans of Susan Mallery, Barbara Bretton, and Susan Wiggs.
Fashion curator Athena Smith will do anything to get her hands on the Clayworth family’s couture collection for her exhibit. So she’s thrilled when she’s called in to authenticate the gowns…until she falls ill while examining them and wakes up face-to-face with notorious
Drew doesn’t trust Athena one bit. He still believes she betrayed him years ago. So when his family’s gowns go missing and Athena offers her help in exchange for the dresses, he reluctantly accepts. But they’re both taken off guard by the barely restrained passion that’s still between them…and the memories that are both bitter and sweet. As they work together to find the dresses, can they resist the sparks between them?

Hey I just visited Sherrill Bodine’s website. I’ve never read anything by her but her work sounds wonderful, I think she has found a new fan in me. What really interested me about Sherri and what drew me to read about her books was the way she speaks about her children and grandchildren. You can feel her love for them in her words and all the fun activities she does with them, it actually reminded me a lot of my own fun grandmother and made me smile. Thank you RJ for introducing me to her work.

Exactly what Pam said and I’m definitely going to buy the book. Also the author herself, is adorable and looks to have a lot of class. I’m always challenged with my reading and my New Year’s resolution is to not only try new authors but also genres.
I have always wanted to visit Chicago and now through this book I can.
