I've been reading up a storm recently, and I'll start with the ones I'm taking back to the Library today.  So in no particular order...

Vicki's Summer Reading List:  (part one)

Girls' Night In by Lauren Henderson
   Is a collection of short stories whose authors include Emily Giffin, Meg Cabot, Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez, Lolly Winston, Kristin Gore, Marian Keyes, Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus.  My absolut favorite story is What Goes Around by Louise Bagshawe.  It begins with a man trying to end his marriage over dinner on his 20th anniversary, and ends with his wife turning the tables and walking out on him.

Leave It to Cleavage by Wendy Wax
    An enjoyable paperback romance, where Ballantyne Bra heiress Miranda Smith learns that her husband is a cross-dressing cheater, that he's done *something* to the financials as president of her family's company and discovers that he's disapeared with most of their money.  She of course, tries to hide his errors and absence while finding a solution...oh, yeah and there's romance in there too!

Suddenly Sexy by Linda Francis Lee
  This is the first book in a trilogy of "Sexy" novels that follows the love lives of three West Texas women who have been friends since childhood.  Each novel features one woman.  The novel covers are what drew me to the books--Sinfully Sexy, the second book, has a woman's torso with her holding a 3-layered piece of cake.  These books are pretty simple, and a bit wordy with descriptions, but in the beginning of Suddenly Sexy there is the phrase "He looked like a cowboy stepping out for the night, his white long-sleeved, button-down shirt tailored perfectly over broad shoulders, narrowing into lean hips and thighs encased in tight, soft Wrangler jeans that cupped his crotch like a lover."  (*Which is totally my new favorite descriptive phrase*)

I love the public library system!!
