Pepper and Prudence Pereira might be fraternal twins, but they have only one thing in common, their passion for writing; one intrigue the other romance.
Attending a readers/writers convention in Las Vegas seemed like the perfect location for much-needed quality sister time. Their fun ends abruptly when drama begins and the police get involved. All the authors are informed that no one can leave Vegas until they are cleared. Now caught up in a tangled web of lies and deception, Pru and Pepper know there is only one way out, find the truth themselves.
In their search, their paths continue to cross with Gerard Hamel and Maxwell Whittaker. They insist they only want to help, yet both seem to have a hidden agenda.
The stakes are high, and the sisters must decide. Will trusting these men land them behind bars, or will they find the only thing held captive is their hearts? Can love be found in the midst of a tragedy?
Jeannette grew up in a large family, number ten out of eleven children, eight of them being older brothers. She quickly developed a great sense of humor, mostly from necessity. One of her greatest joys is sitting on the porch where they were all raised and hearing the stories from years gone by. Quietly laughing to herself, she notices how they embellish the stories more and more each year.
Storytelling was passed down from her grandfather and mother. Jeannette caught the bug at a very young age. If she didn’t have her head in a book, then she was off somewhere with a notebook, jotting down stories of what she would write if one day she became an author. Although the notebook may have vanished, the stories are still vivid and waiting for the right time to be told.
Despite having an amazing family, there have also been some sorrows in her life, including the loss of loved ones. Over the years, Jeannette has spent countless hours volunteering for different organizations and acting as a caregiver to those dearest to her. As a result, supporting the elderly became of utmost importance.
As she approached a milestone birthday in 2015, she decided to take her passion for writing and blend it with her desire to continue to help others. As she writes her stories, she hopes they touch someone’s life. Within the layers of the romance, the foundation remains throughout and is one that is dear to her; make a difference in someone’s life each day!
In 2016 she met someone who encouraged her to push herself even further and try her hand at spicy intrigue. One year later she has four books in this new series and each one pushing her limits just a bit further.
Like the wind, Jeannette’s life changed directions several times over the years, yet one constant remains: her desire to leave this Earth a little better than when she entered it as she tries to live by these words, Make your mark on the world today as your acts of kindness is all anyone will remember in years to come!
I wasn't sure if I would like this book. Not a big fan of murder or dark. This is not a dark book at all. It's light mystery with humor and relationships and some funny stuff, too. Great book.
Nov 2018 - Loved the book!! I'm really looking forward to the next book in the series! I hope Pepper will marry Max! July 2019 - I just re-read the book 8 months later. I'd like to add how fun this book is as well. Within the first 19% you will be laughing at the funny quips and teasing that goes on between sisters and friends. Completely out of love. If you've ever been to Las Vegas then you can relate. I really like the characters! Great great writing! Might as well go and get the next book in the series right now. It's called "The Write Bride" and my wish comes true. :-)
I loved this story. Can't wait for more. Started out fluffy and lighthearted turns to mystery, intrigue then gets HOT and oh so romantic Pru and Pepper are sisters, twins in fact, who are different as night and day.. romantic A story of opposites attract. Importance of core values and family values.
A good read for people who are in to the series recommended highly can’t wait for the next one of the series a enjoyable read but quick shaping up to be a good series must read the next of the series
I love the sisters. They couldn't pick totally different men. Of course their personalities are just as different. I so enjoyed the story even though I thought Max was mean and not a nice person to begin with. His mom well she was the best. I loved the ending!
