My sister, Nancy Bush, and I have been writing for years, usually on individual books, but other times together. We wrote a whole series of “Wicked” books about a cultish family where all the sisters have a bit of ESP. (You can check them out on http://www.lisajackson.com or http://www.nancybush.net )


Recently, though, we wanted to write something a little different so we started spit-balling and going back to our romance novel roots. I said, “I love the whole runaway bride idea.” Sister Nan’s response was, “I love the whole secret baby thing. And by the way, have you ever heard of Point Roberts, Washington?” I hadn’t but it’s a very interesting part of Washington state accessible through Canada.

Perfect! We had setting and the germ of an idea! ONE LAST BREATH was born.

We wondered how we could blend those stories and add in a mystery, while blending romance and spilling blood and tossing in a lot of suspense and came up with the idea of an attack at the scene of the wedding propelling the bride to leave.

The mystery hinges on who was behind the brutal attack.

I can’t tell you how much fun we had with this!

We loved the idea of the grace, reverence and beauty of a wedding juxtaposed against the terror of a horrific attack.

Yep. We felt like we pulled out all the stops on thisone and hope everyone agrees!
