As a child I was always in awe of my mother who could name every plant we ever passed, often by its Latin name. I used to test her, trying to catch her out. Iâd tug her arm and point to some obscure leaf or flower, often hidden behind another, and ask âwhatâs that?â She always knew. I badly wanted to be such an expert, able to impress people with my depth of knowledge. Sadly, that has yet to happen (although Iâm confident with âroseâ) but one of the great things about writing is that you can create characters who are everything youâre not.
The heroine of this story, Frankie, is most definitely an expert. Like my mother, she can take a few stems of greenery and arrange them in such a way as to make a person stop and admire. Frankie is a strong, independent woman who is very good at her job and she is in control of every part of her life except one â her love life. Taking that leap requires her to put aside her tarnished beliefs about love. The one person who might be able to do that is Matt, the older brother of her best friend.
Friends-to-lovers is a theme I love exploring. I enjoyed watching Frankie and Mattâs long friendship turn into something deeper, and seeing Frankie learn to trust after years of keeping barriers between herself and the world.
Thank you for picking up this book! I hope you enjoy Sunset in Central Park, and that reading it brings some reading sunshine to your day. Donât forget to look out for Evaâs story, Miracle on 5th Avenue, coming later in the year and if youâre on Facebook, I hope youâll join me there. https://www.facebook.com/AuthorSarahMorgan
