Dear Readers,

People often ask me how I got started writing women’s fiction—and in particular, why I write romance. I believe that in today’s world where fear and obligation often define our priorities, we ache to remember love—to remember what it felt like the first time the object of our desire reached out to brush the hair from our face—what it feels like to be so wholly in the moment, nothing else matters except the transcendental, extrasensory experience romance evokes. There’s nothing like it.
