"My ideal man was Christopher Reeves’ Superman; my ideal woman Lynda Carter’s Wonder Woman. But here was my first glimpse of the electricity that can crackle between two such sexy grown-ups. Like Oz, it’s another 1939 tale about a dark-haired, willful farm girl. But Scarlett O’Hara’s desires aren’t as heady as Dorothy’s; they run hot and elsewhere. Thanks to the manic perfectionism of both producer David O. Selznick and Vivien Leigh, it’s the best depiction of female desire ever captured on film."

"There aren’t many authors who can get me invested in a one-night stand right off the bat, but this book was real and raw enough to make it work. Written solely from the hero’s point of view, Trashed follows an ex-con gang member trying to get back on his feet as he develops feelings for the prickly chef he works for. Sexy, funny, heart-warming and intensely romantic, this book is one of my all-time faves. In fact, I adore this whole series."

"I always mention this but no one goes out to see it. I love this idea of courage and that’s what gets you to the next level. I think Meryl Streep — who’s always good — it was so nice to see her as just a person and not a refugee who had to make a choice between her two children or whatever it was. No accent, no anything, just sort of Meryl Streep being sexy and being Meryl Streep. You’re not used to seeing her that way."
