Somebody to Love

By Roni Denholtz

Grace Norwood loves her job as a DJ at a small radio station. She'd only meant it as a little joke when, after meeting Brian Talbot, the handsome new Advertising and Promotions manager, she played the song "Somebody to Love" during her show--and quipped that she'd met someone who needed somebody to love. Before she knew it, the idea had taken hold and the station was running a promotion to find a girlfriend for Brian. Brian resents the idea and decides to turn the tables on Grace. The radio station is soon running a second promotion--finding a boyfriend for Grace. Betrayed by his former girlfriend, Brian doesn't believe in love, and fights the urge to begin a relationship with Grace. As the radio station audience listens, Grace and Brian go through the motions of finding Valentine's Day dates...all the while struggling with their growing feelings for each other. Will the two of them learn to listen to their hearts and discover somebody to love...in each other?

Customer Reviews

A lyrical, free-spirited read

SOMEBODY TO LOVE is a lyrical, fun, free-spirited read. DJ Grace Harmony Norwood, the daughter of parents who met at Woodstock, believes strongly in love. When Grace meets Brian Talbot, the radio station's new advertising manager, the sparks that fly between them heat up faster than a Mick Jagger performance. Brian, raised by a social climbing mother and betrayed by his fiancee, no longer believes in love. When their station announces a Valentine's Day contest to find dates for both of them, Grace realizes its Brian she wants for the rest of her life. The creative musical metaphors and emotional interplay as Flower Child Grace teaches cynical Brian the power of love make SOMEBODY TO LOVE as satisfying and soul-stirring as the best rock songs of the hippie era.

REALITY RADIO

In this day of reality shows, radio DJ Grace Norwood inadvertantly launches a quest for the perfect Valentine's date for the station's handsome new advertising manager. The applications pour in and the subject of this publicity stunt, Brian Talbot, decides turnabout is fair play and the search soon includes candidates for Grace as well. Look over their shoulders as they sift through applications, join them on the prliminary dates, and be there for the satisfying revelation. They only want each other! But who will make the first move? A wonderful story and a fun read. I highly recommend it.
