This week my book boyfriend is

From


Sam is a businessman with dark rumpled hair. Poppy steals his PAs phone and borrows it since her phone is stolen. She is supposed to forward all his emails and text messages. Poppy ends up reading everything in the phone and gets to know him. They do a lot of texting back and forth so I'll be sharing a few of their text messages.





He is smart and direct and helps Poppy gain confidence to confront people.

"Sam doesn't hesitate for a minute.
'You say, "Mr and Mrs Tavish, you're making me feel inferior. Do you really think I'm inferior or is it just in my mind?"

Poppy also has a good affect on loosening up Sam.

[Poppy]  I'm glad it was your phone I picked up.

[Sam]   So am I.

[Poppy]   It's been good. Weird but good.

[Sam]  Weird but good would sum it up, yes. :-)

He sent another smiley face! I don't believe it!

[Poppy]   What's happened to the man formerly know as Sam Roxon?

[Sam]   He's broadening his horizons. Which reminds me, where have all your kisses gone?

[Poppy]   Dunno. You've cured me.

[Poppy]   Xxxxx

A moment later his reply arrives:

[Sam]   Xxxxxxxxxxx

[Poppy]   Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[Sam]    Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[Poppy]    Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxxoxoxoxoxoxo

[Sam]    Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

[Poppy]   :-)  :-)   :-)  xxx :-)  :-)  xxx  :-)  :-)  xxx

   

And Poppy is a treasure, though she doesn't realize it.

 

 

Sam sees Poppy at a business party that she was not invited to lol
Here are their text messages at the party

[Sam]   Why were you laughing?

[Poppy]   It was a good joke.

[Sam]   I didn't know your name was on my invitation.

[Poppy]   Just stopped by to collect your goody bag for you. All part of the service. No need to thank me.

[Sam]   And my cocktails, I see.

[Poppy]   I was going to put them in a hip flask for you. Obviously.

[Sam]   Obviously. Although mine's a Manhattan.

[Poppy]   Ah, well, now I know. I'll chuck all those tequila shots I had saved up.

Sam's feelings for Poppy in a text message

Lover? I don't know. I don't know if she loves me. I don't know if I love her. All I can say is, she's the one I think about. All the time. She's the voice I want to hear. She's the face I hope to see.

Men in suits are so hot! Take your pick for a Sam! I couldn't decide on just one. Sophie Kinsella's books are so hilarious! I had a very good time getting to know Sam and Poppy. It was hard to pick out quotes because so much of their relationship is through long text messages but hopefully that wasn't too confusing and you had a good chuckle.
