From the Author
Tina Wainscott: Have you ever wanted something so badly, only to find out you didn't really want it after all? How about the other way around? We all have certain ideals we want to live up to, especially where family is concerned. We want to make them proud of our dreams and accomplishments. But sometimes their dreams and our dreams don't coincide. That's the problem my heroine, Marisa, faces in my first Harlequin. What she wants out of life would make most families proud: a college education and career. But when you come from a family that believes finding true love and fulfilling old family traditions should come first, ah, that's where it gets complicated.
When I finished writing this book, I wanted to be part of this wacky, close family (now don't get me wrong, I'm very happy with my slightly more normal version). But I had so much fun hanging out with the Cerinis, and throwing my hero, Barrie, into the middle of them, I didn't want to leave. I hope you feel the same. Because no matter what your plans are in life, you never know...what could happen to you.
Barbara Daly: I love New York, but Vermont has a special place in my heart. Ten months and two weeks of the year it's a spectacularly beautiful spot--even the Interstate is beautiful. What about the other six weeks? MUD SEASON, which is spectacularly awful. (Look for details in NEVER SAY NEVER!, Harlequin DUETS, August, 2000.) On the other hand, mud season is Vermont's only funny season. I felt compelled to give this particular love story a backdrop of vehicles trapped in seas of mud, a heroine in a muddy wedding dress, a hero in a muddy sheriff's uniform...
What? You're not laughing yet? Well, you will be soon, I hope. NEVER SAY NEVER!
