    I had so much fun researching real estate in Dallas! My sister lives in the area, so she pointed me in the right direction and then I "shopped" on line for a house I liked. I was astonished by how expensive the houses there are. But it was a lot of fun seeing how the other half lives.

    I'm so glad you enjoyed the book! And I'm glad you enjoyed Izzie as well. She's the first child I've written, and I had so much fun with her. One of the things that surprised me when I became a mom was how much personality babies have from such a young age. So I enjoyed being to show that with Izzie.

    As for Derek ... well, I've just finished up his book. I've before written books that were that connected. It was a fun challenge, because I knew people would have expectations about him and I wanted to do him justice.

    That's so cool that you met your guy while diving.

    My hubby and I love to dive. We haven't been in over a year, though, and I'm starting to get the itch again. We've never been to the Bahamas.

    Hmm ... intriguing idea, having a long lost brother show up. I kind of like it, actually. Just now I'm working on the second book in the Hudsons of Beverly Hills continuities. But after that, I've been toying with the idea of doing Quinn's story. However I do kind of like the idea of a brother they didn't know they had showing up. I'll have to toss around ideas with my critique partner.Smile

    Ha! I know all about towering TBR stacks. Mine is getting larger all the time.

    Those two kids you mentioned have something to do with that. For example right now, I've got the three month old sleeping on my belly and the 2 year old playing with her little people plane on the sofa beside me. Later today, when it's clean up time, I might be sorry I let her shoved her entire collection of hair barettes and pony tail holders into the Little People plane, but for now, she's having fun. Smile

    A husband that knows when to nudge the klenex closer? Now, that's a hero! Smile

    As for adding humor in my books ... I always try to do that. Actually, it's not so much that I try to do, that's just the way I see the world. I think humor makes everything stronger and better. I think it makes an emotional book more emotional. If you think about some of the real greats in the industry--Susan Elizabeth Philips, for example--their books are funny and sad. That's what I like to read, so that's what I write.

    I'm so glad you enjoyed the story. Maybe I should apologize for making you cry, but instead I'll just take it as a compliment. <g>

    Btw, do you scuba dive? That's what it looked like from your picture. I'm a big diver myself.

    Sorry, Rae, that it won't be out until October. <g>

    Glad you enjoyed it though. That's always so nice to hear.

     

    Btw, I'm kind of a newbie to the eharlequin boards, so be gentle with me.

    Thanks for stopping by! 

    This book is particularly close to my heart, so I'm excited that eHarlequin is hosting a discussion about it.
