When I was writing Under the Sugar Sun, I was a little obssessive. I imagined annotating it with all sorts of fun fake documents: telegrams, ledgers, even Javier‘s high school report card from Seminario-Colegio de San Carlos! If you would like to see these "documents," I will be sending out the link in my next newsletter. Aren't signed up yet?

Sam Aquino and Gio Gahol were so good as Georgie and Javier from Under the Sugar Sun by @jenniferhallock! Hoping #romanceclass stages more #FeelsSoHot readings! Hoping it's an annual thing!
Today on the blog, @jenniferhallock explains why she writes historical romances set in the Philippines instead of the usual UK setting. Read the whole guest post: https://chachic.wordpress.com/2017/03/05/why-the-edwardian-philippines-guest-pos...

#bookanddinner! I'm still in the middle of @jenniferhallock's Under the Sugar Sun, and these were the delicious crab cakes we had for dinner. My friend was celebrating two years of living and working in Singapore (I'm coming close to five years) so we had fancy seafood for dinner. #romantsy
Good morning! #bookandcoffee for this morning is my current read and a mint hot chocolate with a shot of espresso. I've been meaning to read Under the Sugar Sun for ages, and I'm so excited to have a historical romance set in the Philippines.💖 Such a great setting!

Loved Jennifer Hallock's micro-history lecture at Ayala Museum, how it weaved moments in Philippine history as a US colony into her character studies for historical romance. One of my favorite characters showed up in her slides with the face of Piolo Pascual and I nearly lost it hahaha.
TFW your TBR is no match for the siren call of an autobuy series! #romantsy #bookanddessert #LitsyAtoZ
#bookanddessert! A visit to Cafe Breton will never be complete without an order of La Pinay, Philippine mango goodness in crepe form. I thought it would be fitting to include my shiny, new copy of Under the Sugar Sun because it's historical romance set in the Philippines. I totally blame @minavesguerra @fionvarre for this purchase because we talked about this in yesterday's meet up. I also blame @bookthingo's podcast.

"I bet the gossips have given you quite an earful about the evil Javier Altarejos."
"I've heard plenty," she said, still smiling. "Enough to know that confession must never get boring."
"Well, if I went, it wouldn't."
