Here Comes Trouble…
I've always been the goody-two-shoes kid. The one who does extra credit even when she has an A. I don't know what this says about me (and probably don't want to know) but I do know that I've never been the type to get into trouble. In fact, I've often gone out of my way to avoid it. So, almost fifty years into my existence on this planet, it's rather interesting for me to realize that I really like writing about trouble. I especially like putting my heroes and heroines right smack, deep in the middle of it. Although, I will admit, that writing a story about Brett Hennessey, the reigning bad boy rock star of the professional poker world? Was anything but trouble. In fact, it was a ton of fun! (Again, I avoid the self analysis and just enjoy the moment!) But what’s not to love? Here’s a guy who makes winning look easy, but feels at a total loss when trying to figure out what he’d really like to be doing with his life. The thrill is gone, if it was ever there, but when certain folks aren’t happy about his pending retirement from the sport, he hops on his Harley and heads east, drawing the attention away from those he cares for the most. He doesn’t stop
until he finds himself winding through the mountains of Vermont where he spots a unique little Victorian B&B. Looks like the perfect place to hole up and do a lot of thinking. Instead, after less than an hour on the premises, he finds himself saving the innkeeper from breaking her lovely neck, and somehow ends up the adoptive father of a feral kitten. He’s definitely not in Vegas anymore!
But while Brett finds nothing but trouble as the only guest at Kirby Ferrell’s brand new establishment, he does his best to keep trouble from following him. What do you want to bet he’s not entirely successful at that part? But he’s found something special in the Green Mountains of Vermont. Himself. And, very possibly, the one person he’d like to share his new possibilities with. Trouble? Sure. But worth every minute of it. Especially when it's not happening to me. Double bonus!
So, if you want to take a little walk on the wild side without, you know, actually leaving home to do it, then you might want to pick up a copy. And if you do, I hope you enjoy the ride. Oh, and if any of you are Cosmo Girls, check out the excerpt of the book in the March issue!
Also, for those of you who like your trouble wrapped in a kilt, I'm happy to announce I'm heading back to the land of heather and tartan with a contemporary series slated to start in late May. First up is Some Like It Scot, followed right around Santa time with Off Kilter. And there's a few other titles scattered in between as well, just to keep you from being bored! Check out my daily blog at www.donnakauffman.com/blog for all the immediate and droolable details, including upcoming cover art…and a chance every week to win a free book! For the next two weeks, with Valentine's Day just around the corner, there's chocolate involved as well. Just sayin. And I love to hear from readers, so feel free to drop me a line!
