Sandra Sookoo schrijft hartverwarmende romantiek, gedreven door de overtuiging dat iedereen acceptatie en een happy end verdient. Haar werk verkent vaak schandalige situaties in het Regency-tijdperk, de toevallige wendingen van het Victoriaanse Amerika en de snedige humor van het hedendaagse leven. Ze creëert verhalen die, net als fijne chocolade, lezers naar meer laten verlangen, en biedt heerlijke ontsnappingen zonder calorieën. Sookoo's schrijven benadrukt lachen en het koesteren van momenten, en creëert verhalen die dromen voeden met hoop en liefde.
