Takalani M is definitely on the road to success as a romance writer. In fact I think she is a happily modern version of the old Mills&Boon genre. She writes with fluidity, has a good story line which, despite the twists and turns, ultimately leads to the ending we all want to hear.
Into the Sun is a great read, capturing imagination and as lively as the author herself. If you’re looking for a light, easy-to- read romance then this is the one for you. 
Curl up on a lounger and prepare to be engrossed as the story unfolds.
Heroine Thandeka is the village girl from Venda who is nearly run over by a handsome stranger in her village. Gundo is there for the funeral of his son, she is still mourning the loss of her still born child and betrayal by her child’s father. In this surreal scenario they connect and share their grief and he gives her advice that resonates and comforts her. When Thandeka is recruited to work in Johannesburg as a cleaner for a big PR firm she finds, to her surprise, that he is the boss! But some confusion reigns through mistaken identity when Thandeka thinks he is a ‘player’ and tries to resist their mutual attraction. Ex-wife Diana is in the firm and uses all her conniving, wicked wiles to ensure their budding romance is scuppered. And so the story goes with a winding road to true love. I’m not going to give you spoilers but suffice to say things do start going Thandeka’s way but not without some nail-biting drama.
Takalani M draws her characters well. We are behind Thandeka, wanting this strong and talented young woman to win and fulfil her own dreams. Gundo is a good man, deserving of empathy and his one true love.
This is Chick-Lit at its best so pick it up for a chilled weekend – after all - who doesn’t need a bit of love in their lives!
