I’m delighted to recommend in this week’s blog a love story like this one, as it truly has all the ingredients of a classic romance novel: a girl with a handsome, rich, and charming boyfriend falls in love with a poor guy, who also happens to be a criminal, but seems to have a good heart.
However, Nina Sweet, this mysterious new author, has a gift for writing and takes what could have been a simple prison love story and turns it into something much more: a novel that draws you in its passionate love story, while also sparking debate about justice, law, and the prejudices of the society we live in. It’s a book I devoured in two days, and one I would recommend to all romance fans because prison romance is here to stay, and Nina Sweet is leading the way.
Here’s a short summary, so you can either ask me for the manuscript or head to the bookstore to grab a copy:
When her boyfriend lands his dream job in Madrid and they leave Pontevedra, Cora feels her heart shatter. However, when she meets Roque, a prisoner at the jail where she teaches theater, she realizes that fate has woven its threads to bring them together.
Have you ever wondered if you could fall in love with a prisoner?
Cora Quiroga is a young Literature professor living in a quiet town with her boyfriend, Mason Brown, a promising, attractive, and ambitious lawyer. The couple’s professional path takes them to Madrid. There, Cora meets Roque Gato, a dangerously sexy man who is imprisoned for killing a young man in a fight. Soon, a special chemistry develops between them, making Cora question her entire life. What would you do if you were Cora?
A new voice, a new genre, that I’m sure won’t disappoint!
