Do you ever wonder about the road not taken? The seed not planted?
The man not kissed?
One day I decided that the road not taken led to a story not told, and that story led to a book, and suddenly what had only been a fantasy became a reality bound between covers with my name on it.
Telling a story to myself and telling it to you is really the same thing. I am a wife, a mother, an indifferent housekeeper, and a teacher. My friends vary, from anthropologists to artists to homemakers. All of us, and you, too, are simply looking for a little time to ourselves, a little time to dream.
Now, some of us take dreaming to an art form, and never see the dirty dishes. Some of us carve a tiny fragment of guilty pleasure out of a hectic day. But I believe that for every hardworking woman out there, there is a dream, a story, and a prince.

Seller: Grants Books, Belding, MI, U.S.A.
Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. When Izzy went to bed, she never expected to awaken to disgrace. Of course, it felt wonderful: warm hands on her flesh, rough stubbled skin on her cheek. It all seemed some delicious dream. But that hardly mattered to the ton. To them she was ruined, for Lord Eppingham Julian Rowley had been discovered in her bed and she'd claimed him as her own. Why had she brought ruination to her name and dishonor to her family- dishonor that could only be erased by marriage? She had not wanted to trap the handsome rake in wedlock. Though she might fall forever into his golden-brown eyes, marriage to any man was not something she sought. Nor had she acted from any true fear of the ton. It had been something in Julian's touch, his kiss. Something had called out for her to guard him, to place herself in the way of his ruin. If to save this man meant to be fallen, so be it. And in saving him, she just might save herself. Language: eng Language: eng Language: eng. Seller Inventory # ABE-18572907750
