When a cocky journalist interviews a young romance writer, the word fraud is used to describe her work. Tempers flare but can they deny the instant attraction?
AJ grew up in Perth, Western Australia. She is the third of six children and her first exposure to romance was her parents. Now married for almost 55 years, they have always been her example when working on her own marriage and parenting skills. Jane Austen, the Bronte sisters and Georgette Heyer, were the writers she grew to love in adolescence and still loves now. Her list of favorite authors now has grown to include, not only historical but also contemporary authors as well. Sadly, she doesn’t have as much time to indulge in novels as much as she would like. Her family and now writing her own novels, keeps her very busy, but you will always find a book on her nightstand. Other hobbies include cooking, one her favorite television shows is The Next Iron Chef on Food Network, and traveling, the UK and the Caribbean her favorite places to visit. She and her husband of 28 years, reside on the west coast of the USA and have two grown children, making them empty-nesters, and recently adopted a rescued puppy, Max, from the local humane society.
I definitely made the right choice reading Mr. Wright's story again. I first read the story in an anthology. This time I got to enjoy it so much more without the pressure (creating by me) to get the whole collection finished. It was a quick, short read. More importantly it just felt real. I believed it, and I wanted them to find away to be together. Gina Walters took me on a behind the seasons tour of life as an author and the stresses involved in writing and signings. She writes for her fans even if she has to fake it. Jackson Wright is a journalist. He has Gina pegged pretty quickly. He calls a spade a spade without using a filter. He is like the little boy at recess pinching the girl, leaving her hurt and confused.
