Review of Trying for that 'Sun Kissed' look.

Cheryl-Anne Millsap spins a short yarn with a leaning towards the absurdity of growing older. With raw prose she includes us in the wordplay exchanged with a dear friend "of a certain age." The puns seem to fall out of her mouth pushing her friend to the limits, but letting us understand the thier relationship just a little. We learn that Cheryl-Anne loves words, and can't help using them to cajole and cavort through this conversation.

The subject matter is generic and undated. The tone is engaging and soft, befitting a spot on a morning news broadcast, or tossed into a magazine show.
