Читать книгу Flirting With Temptation - Cara Summers - Страница 8

Dear Mrs. H,

Spectacular! That’s the only word that I can think of to describe your wedding photos. Green was the perfect choice for the bridesmaids’ dresses. But then our tastes always did coincide.

My research for my screenplay is going well. The two young women who have rented my apartment on a time-share basis are giving me lots of ideas. I’ve lent the man-magnet skirt to each of them, and the “adventure has begun”! The skirt hasn’t lost a bit of its power since you gave it to me. You wouldn’t believe some of the male visitors these two women have—from hunky construction workers to alien-abductee investigators. I kid you not! And I thought I’d seen everything while I was living in Manhattan.

I’ve already accumulated copious notes. The path of true love never runs smoothly—even when it has a little help from a man-magnet skirt.

As I mentioned in my last letter, I’ve had a devil of a time finding a third tenant, thanks to all the construction work on the other buildings on the block. And I do need the money. With any luck my old college roommate, Jack Kincaid, will come through for me. He has a line on a third young woman—a college librarian from Fairview, Ohio. If he can convince her to fly out here, I may have my best research subject yet. Her story has the potential for an Oscar-winning screenplay—murder, mayhem, old secrets from the past and, of course, true love.

More later. Give my best to Pierre—and to Cleo and Antoine and their new litter of puppies. And let them know that the urban legend of the skirt is living on in San Francisco!

Ta!
