Ever
since Marc showed her in middle school that her boyfriend was cheating
on her,
by shoving her into a room where said boyfriend was playing tonsil
hockey with
another girl, Valery “Blush” Taylor
has made it her goal to pester Marc when possible. This harassment is
also a
smoke screen for the attraction she feels towards him which she feels
he would
in no way welcome.
Ever
since his misguided intentions hurt Blush, Dr. Marc Ford has been
taking flack
from her as atonement for her pain. His guilt and his surety that Blush
hates
him, has also prevented him from confessing the love he’s harbored
toward her
for years. Until he receives a surprise gift for his birthday and he
begins to
speculate that maybe there’s a chance for them yet.
Now
if they can both keep the doubt and insecurities from overwhelming
them, Marc
and Blush just may find what they’ve been waiting for.
SILK
SCARVES AND SEDUCTION seduced my heart from the first page. Shiloh
Walker has
created characters that pull at your heart and whose consuming
attraction is
almost too hot and certainly not for the faint of heart. I loved that
Marc and
Blush knew each other and were friends since elementary school who then
fell in
love. Also, that they were both so busy trying to protect their hearts
that
they failed to see the love that existed between them for all others to
see. If SILK SCARVES AND SEDUCTION is
any indication of the type of writer Shiloh Walker is then I can
guarantee that
I’ll be reading more of her work and encourage you to do the same.
Shiloh
Walker has the ability to create plots and characters that draw
people’s
interest and make them want everything to work out for the best.
