Story Behind The Book
After having three children, I've decided that I'm tired of hearing men say they can handle being pregnant better than a female. After watching an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the story took place. I had a lot of fun writing men having the symptoms of a pregnant female, and the reasons for why the demon decided to infect them.

I went to school with the writer and I want her to know she is a very talented woman. When I was reading the book, I could feel the characters and I hope to be seeing more writings from Sara in the future. Thanks. Good luck Sara!</span> <span class="rquo">”</span> </blockquote> <span class="review-name">Penny F</span> </div> </li> <li class="review-item"> <div> <blockquote class="review-quote"> <span class="lquo">“</span> <span class="content">It was very unusual and raw, but as I consumed it, the taste began to unveil it's many delicate flavors and I started to really enjoy it. There were so many elements that blended into one great story. Nala was very complex. On the one hand she was very strong, smart and confident, but due to her isolation, she was also insecure in her sexuality and in her power as a sensual woman. Gabriel is married to his job as a Graida (guardian for the Vardo) and somewhat of a commitmentphobe. He had a past love affair gone bad, waaaaaay back in the day that he uses as an excuse to screw around. Men! He wasn't a hound per se, just your typical Alpha hero sewing his oats.<br /><br /> Sara Trimble has done a phenomenal job of world building and blending of mythological beings in this story. She wrote it in such a way that it seemed logical and totally believable. The characters were varied and contained great depth, from the gay vampire to the insecure nympho fairy. Heart Over Mind, while being a dark story full of deceit, murder and betrayal, also balances it out with whimsical charm and a tad bit of sweaty sex. I see great potential in Sara Trimble's story and would really like to see her continue in this vein. It was a vastly entertaining read and I applaud her efforts and encourage her on her journey as an author. This is a world I would really like to explore further, and I definitely see promise in some of the secondary characters. Bravo, Ms. Trimble, and well done.</span><span class="rquo">”</span> </blockquote> <a href="http://www.ragesexandteddybears.com">Wendy Mitchell Rage, Sex and Teddy Bears</a> </div> </li> </ol>
