Читать книгу Her Kind Of Hero - Janice Carter - Страница 10

Dear Reader,

Her Kind of Hero is my second Heartwarming and my thirteenth Harlequin romance novel. I call it my “lucky” thirteen because I feel lucky to have the opportunity to write stories of people connecting with one another, with family and community.

But this book is particularly special to me. When my children were young and before I returned to full-time work, I was involved in a number of community organizations as a volunteer and a board member. Those experiences were enriching and gave me an appreciation of the importance of community work not only at the local level, but to society as a whole.

This book is special for me in another way, too. The frightening incident that brought my heroine, Dana Sothern, together with her hero, Matt Rodriguez, was partially based on a news article and a long-ago personal experience of mine. I speculated how a narrow escape, such as the one Dana and Matt had, might lead to a new direction in a person’s life. For Dana and Matt, the repercussions and personal revelations of a terrifying moment on a subway platform led to new beginnings for both of them. And also to something totally unexpected—love.

Enjoy the read!
