Although my other ambition was to be a musical theater star (and I would attend college on a voice scholarship), writing was never far from my mind.

I write contemporary fiction, and that is what my readers want to read.

Every girl pretends she is a princess at one point, no matter how little her life is like that.

True love would look a second time. True love would not be thwarted. True love would not accept no for an answer. He would search the world and certainly look again and again in every cottage in Euphrasia until he finds you.

Since I've written many of my books from a less-than-sympathetic viewpoint, I think that being able to see things from all sides is a useful talent.

In stories like Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast, they always say the heroine is 'as good as she is beautiful.' I wondered if people just wanted that to be true, wanted the beautiful to be good. I wondered if they wanted the ugly to be bad because then they wouldn't have to feel bad for them.
