    Must-read romances: 'Love's Culture'

    Happy Ever After

    Love's Culture by Angelia Vernon Menchan.(Photo: Honorable Menchan Media)

    Love's Culture by Angelia Vernon Menchan
    Love's Culture by Angelia Vernon Menchan is a short love story that not only zooms in on the couple, but also draws in those on the sidelines around these young lives. The attraction is instant, sexually intense and honest between Sadia and Mahad. While family and friends' expectations, betrayal and cultural traditions throw up seemingly insurmountable roadblocks, the difficulties make the romantic journey that much sweeter.
    Menchan does a fine job with shifting the lens to capture the characters' unique perspective and motivations. She creates a melting pot of diverse goodness to be served up for a fulfilling read. Well done.
