 Michigan is beautiful this time of year. Everything is green and growing. Flowers are blooming and the weather is warmer...It's the time for romance in the air. Michigan author, Susan V. Vaughn has tapped into the Michigan romance for her latest release, Sweet Escape about two unlikely people who fall in love despite their differences. And while you don't have to be a Michigander to appreciate the story, it does give you an added bonus seeing your town come to life! Blurb: Ted Harper knew moving to Milford to open his dream bar wouldn’t be easy. But he could have never imagined he would be so easily distracted from his goal. Violet Marino is beautiful, smart, captivating, and unfortunately, his next-door neighbor. Now Ted has a dilemma on his hands he didn’t anticipate as his life becomes entangled with a woman he can’t seem to forget. Violet Marino has spent decades caring for her family and working at her father’s restaurant as a waitress. Hardly the life she dreamed of living when she was a little girl. But after her mother died, she was never a little girl again. Thrust into the parenting role for her two younger siblings, Violet sacrificed everything for their well-being. When a handsome business owner offers her more than just a sweet escape, Violet is tempted to take him up on the offer. Even if that means jumping into the unknown. EXCERPT: He saw another opportunity to tease her and decided he had to take it. She kept leaving herself open. “Oh, I get it. You’re one of those narrow-minded types.” “I am not!” she said with outrage. He shook his head sadly. “Sounds like you are.” “No, I just…” She paused, seeming lost. “Well, look at you. You’re like this perfect, broken nose Ken doll.” And there was the bad review based on his “cover”. “So you’re saying I’m plastic and handsome?” She exhaled noisily, obviously flustered, and he enjoyed every minute of it. “I just mean, you’re, like…well, you are handsome, I guess. Probably to most women. But that’s not the point.” She seemed frazzled, like she was trying to talk herself out of admitting any attraction. But he had seen the heat in her eyes when they locked gazes, and he wasn’t about to let her off the hook. “So what’s the point?” “The point is you don’t look or act like someone who spends his off time reading books.” “That’s the funny thing about me.” Seeing his opening, he stood up and walked over to her chair. “I have a lot of layers to my personality.” He grabbed her hands. She arched her head back, staring up at him, probably trying to figure out why he was now standing so close and touching her. “What are you doing?” He pulled her to her feet. If he waited any longer to kiss her, he would probably lose his mind. “Showing you another layer,” he said, and then, before she could react, he pressed his lips against hers and felt the world come alive.
