A modern day Cinderella story set in the Hamptons. Tori Miller’s life fell apart when her boyfriend Peter broke up with her two years ago and ever since then, her life has been all work and no play. Until her best friends stage an “intervention,” by arranging both a TV makeover show and a summer share in the Hamptons to bring some excitement back to her life. Tori reluctantly takes her pals’ advice and finds herself in a strange new world. In addition to a stylish new look and an expensive designer wardrobe, she suddenly has six new housemates, a glamorous social life, and more male attention than she can handle. But Tori’s not quite prepared for all the complications that come with her new life; making new friends, juggling men, avoiding paparazzi, & partying every night make it difficult to keep up with her old friends and build her new company. And while she loves the attention of her charming, handsome, RICH new beau George, she also finds herself attracted to one of her housemates, which is completely against house rules.
This light, breezy novel, which Publishers Weekly called “a dazzling debut,” is perfect reading for the beach or pool. If you’ve ever wondered what it’d be like to spend a summer among the rich and famous, you love Lovehampton, an entertaining and easy read.

I thought you’d be interested to know that Sherri Rifkin, the author of Love Hampton, is now blogging over at http://www.embraceyourgrace.com.
The site was created by TNT as a community site for discussion of their show Saving Grace. TNT hired 6 influential women to head up the community as bloggers. Along with Rifkin there’s a comedian, a producer, a musician, a journalist, and the creator of the show, Nancy Miller.
These women provoke discussion of topics that arise in the show by writing daily posts and posing discussion questions for users to answer. Users can blog on the site too and contribute to forums.
I’d be interested to hear what you think. The site reminds me a little bit of an online bookclub-- except the discussion is centered around a TV show.
Thanks for your comment! Although I don't watch Saving Grace, I appreciate your note.
