Two of Theresa’s favorite summer activities:
If I were creating the sort of profile I admire, I’d tell you that my favorite summer activities include splashing in the ocean, or camping in the backyard after having a barbecue. But the truth is that I’m hundreds of miles from the nearest beach, and my favorite thing to do there was always to make a giant dolphin out of sand. And I can’t bear to be outside in 100+ heat, especially when the mosquitos are biting.
However, there are so many lovely little things about summer that I do enjoy. Specifically…
1. Road trips! I am notorious for not liking to travel, but it’s really just air travel and I that don’t get along. Several times a year, I take a giant road trip—usually to visit relatives in Louisiana or Wisconsin. Last summer, though, my husband and daughter and I road-tripped from the Midwest all the way to California. It was Little Miss R’s first time to see the American Southwest! If only we’d known *before* the trip that she needed glasses…
2. The state fair, which comes at the very end of summer. It’s just so earnest: have a ride on a camel, come look at some really big pumpkins, try foods that you would never have thought could be fried (I’m looking at you, fried Nutella). It makes me feel like a kid again, in the best way, to see what the people in my state have been up to and are proud of. (Note to self: do NOT go on the skyride over the fairgrounds again. You do not like heights. That does not change just because you have a little cotton candy in your system.)
In SCANDALOUS EVER AFTER, there are no frozen treats or backyard campfires—but there *is* a sea, and Lady Kate Whelan and Evan Rhys find themselves on a road trip of a lifetime. Between ferries and floods, treats and horses and races, sickness and health and more than one scandalous interlude, these two old friends will find a love they never expected—and unearth secrets they never dreamed of. I hope you’ll enjoy this romantic summer read!
