And then he proposes an outrageous experiment to bring back her literary muse and meet her deadline: He’ll take her on a series of experimental dates meant to jump-start her romantic inspiration. Oh, and he cooks.Lucas offers to let Rosie stay with him, at least until she can find some affordable temporary housing. Only this one strolls around the place in a towel, has a distracting grin, and an irresistible accent. Lucas seems intent on coming to her rescue like a Spanish knight in shining armour. But Rosie doesn’t know that Lina has already lent her apartment to her cousin Lucas, who Rosie has been stalking-for lack of a better word-on Instagram for the last few months. Luckily she has her best friend Lina’s spare key while she’s out of town. Then, the ceiling of her New York apartment literally crumbles on her. She hasn’t told her family and now has terrible writer’s block. She just quit her well paid job to focus on her secret career as a romance writer.

No security footage, no DNA, no incriminating fingerprints, no smoking gun, no corroborating testimony, no confession?’ Amanda laughed at the futility. ‘Do you think we have a case against her for letting Delilah die in the trunk of her car?’ Even when Angie was with him, she still held herself apart.

In the months that passed, I thought about Donovan often. My life was too complicated for such a great guy. I waited until he was in the shower, then ghosted him. So what did I do to repay him for his kindness? He was also funny, smart, and surprisingly down to earth for a man who wore seven-hundred-dollar shoes.ĭid I mention he also did my laundry while I slept? Donovan wasn’t just handsome with a panty-dropping voice. Coffee led to dinner, dinner led to dessert, and dessert led to spending an entire weekend together. He got me to admit that I’d snooped in his bag and then convinced me to make it up to him by letting him buy me coffee. The man holding my luggage was absolutely gorgeous, and we had an immediate spark. Turned out, it wasn’t just his voice that was sexy. A deep, velvety voice answered, and as luck would have it, he had my suitcase, too.ĭonovan and I met at a coffee shop to do the exchange. You see, I’d gone away for a few days, and in my haste to get out of the airport, I’d grabbed the wrong suitcase.Īfter checking out the expensive footwear and tailored clothes, I dialed the number on the luggage tag hoping maybe Mister Big Spender might have my bag. A new, sexy standalone from #1 New York Times Bestseller, Vi Keeland.īefore I even met Donovan Decker, I knew his shoe size. But Kassite requests something in return: he needs Deborahs help to escape the tannery and return to his homeland. To see her father’s dream come true, Deborah made the cunning decision to become a man and sought out a mysterious elixirist who can turn women into men.Under the elixirist Kassite’s tutelage and training, Deborah learns the essential traits of masculinity and steadily grows stronger, building muscle and willpower. The author of the bestselling Deborah Rising continues the fascinating story of the Biblical prophetess Deborah in this entrancing work of visionary fiction-a tale of danger, mysticism, intrigue, and daring for fans of The Red Tent, The Mists of Avalon, and The Alchemist.Deborah’s father dreamed that, one day, she would become a prophet-a seemingly impossible dream for a woman in a patriarchal society. I knew she’d be a big deal when I got around to writing her series, but other things had to come first. (Audiobooks, then Playing with Fire, then Windhaven… eh-hem.) For the longest time (well, okay, since 2018), she’s kinda been on the back-burner. I have to say, I’m so glad I decided to take some time this year to back up a bit and slow down. It’s given me some much-needed perspective on my career, my life, and of course, granted me the ability to really be here for the kids as we traverse this whole custody thing.īut one of the things that I’m thinking about this week is Diana Hawthorne and her new phase. However, eighteen years later, at age 36, she is still in the same job, has never had a boyfriend, and has only a handful of friends. “In the convenience store she finds a predictable world mandated by the store manual, which dictates how the workers should act and what they should say, and she copies her coworkers’ style of dress and speech patterns so that she can play the part of a normal person. (Murata, the author, though successful, still works part time in a convenience store, which was the inspiration to write this book.) The novel centers on Keiko Furukura, a thirty-six-year-old Japanese woman who works at a convenience store (part-time.
