Temptation
#1 New York Times Bestselling Author

Dear Friends,
For a very long time I reported on the television industry, and from that day to this I’ve been a self-confessed soap opera fan. Temptation was written with much love and respect for a genre of programming that networks have treated very shabbily in recent years.
More than that, though, it’s a story of a woman coming to grips with the many unexpected changes in her life, building a new relationship with her estranged family and forging even stronger bonds with the people she loves.
I hope you’ll enjoy this chance to catch up with a book that means a lot to me, and that Callie’s story will make you laugh, shed a tear or two and sigh with satisfaction as she makes her way into an even brighter future.
All best,
Sherryl
