"Throughout history, words of love have been invoked by the finest of our men. Words drawn from the core of their soul, and shared with the women they loved most deeply. This book has many such letters, including all of the love letters from the Sex and the City movie, and so much more."

    " Though this book was created specifically for to the Sex In The City Movie, I really enjoyed the works included. There were some moving passages and letters. Some of the pieces may even be included in our wedding ceremony. "

    " Okay, I know they used this in Sex and the City film, but there's nothing hotter than having your guy read one of these to you, and me reading one (or two, or a few!) to him! "
