The Sharp Hook of Love
Sherry Jones's historical romance The Sharp Hook of Love is a retelling of the real-life 12th-century love story between "the original Romeo and Juliet," Héloïse d'Argenteuil and Pierre Abelard. The author includes real excerpts from their love letters in her passionate novel, like this line from Abelard to Heloise:
"While I sleep you never leave me, and after I wake I see you, as soon as I open my eyes, even before the light of day itself."
