Rate this book
Un hiver à Chance City, Susan CrosbyEntre Shana et Kincaid, il n’y a jamais rien eu d’autre que de l’animosité. Aussi hésite-elle à accepter son offre de venir travailler – et surtout habiter – chez lui. Bien sûr, c’est une occasion inespérée pour elle et sa petite Emma. Mais ne risque-t-elle pas de s’exposer à un scandale, dont les habitants de Chance City sont si friands, si elle vit sous le même toit que le plus bel homme de la région, célibataire de surcroît ? Afin d’éviter qu’on lui prête une liaison avec Kincaid, elle exige donc de lui qu’il s’affiche avec l’une de ses nombreuses conquêtes. Au risque de regretter de voir son si troublant patron tomber amoureux d’une autre…Brûlante étreinte, Christyne ButlerEnceinte. Pour Fay, la surprise est de taille. Car si elle s’est offert une nuit de réconfort dans les bras d’Adam – devant un feu de cheminée aussi brûlant que leur étreinte –, elle sait que c’était une erreur. Une erreur d’autant plus terrible qu’elle a longtemps reproché à Adam d’être responsable de la mort de son mari. Après tant de rancœur et de passions mêlées, comment pourrait-elle envisager avec lui un avenir serein… une famille ? Bouleversée, elle est assaillie par une seule et même question : doit-elle seulement lui révéler qu’il va être le père de son enfant ?

And they lived happily ever after.

I’ve always loved that sentence. There is such hope in those words, such faith in the future and ever-after love. I’ve always been a believer, which led me to being a reader of romance novels long before I began to write them. The dance of courtship between a man and a woman, sometimes slow and bluesy, sometimes wild and uninhibited, is sheer bliss to me. And the best part about writing is creating these two dancers who find their perfect partners out of all the other people on the planet.

What brings them together? What could tear them apart? Why do they stick it out through the bad times? Why do they fall more in love with each other every day? Finding the answers to these questions intrigues me. Who are you? I ask them. Some characters give me an hour-long monologue; others clam up until I push the right buttons. Eventually, I get them all to talk, even if I have to torture them a little.

On my journey to becoming a writer, I did a lot of the usual things—married, had children, attended college a little later than the average coed and earned a B.A. in English. Some not-so-usual things happened, too. Life constantly changes, and so we must grow. It’s not a bad thing.

I’ve been fortunate enough to win some awards and receive some honors, which are listed elsewhere on this site. I’ve had the great privilege of working with an exceptional editor from my first book on. My community of writers spans the entire country—smart, funny and loyal people who share and give and support. Without them, this once-upon-a-time journey wouldn’t be anywhere near as fun.
