Читать книгу Once Upon A Mattress - Kathleen O'Reilly, Kathleen O'Reilly - Страница 3

Dear Reader,

When my editor invited me to write for THE WRONG BED series, we brainstormed all the places where beds were found. I wanted to do something a little different—write a book about a place with a veritable treasure trove of beds: a mattress company. Immediately I thought of one of my favorite musicals, Once Upon a Mattress, based on the fairy tale The Princess and the Pea. But you know the thing about fairy tales? They’re always about the princess and never about the prince. Does that seem fair? Not to me. Every princess may have her day, but every prince has his story, and Ben was Hilary’s prince.

Hilary was so easy for me to write. I knew her pain and the distrust that always seemed to follow. Ben was more difficult. Oh, he was a prince, all right, but his world wasn’t quite the way he assumed it to be.

So, on to the story. I love to hear from readers, so please visit my Web site at www.kathleenoreilly.com.

Enjoy!

Kathleen O’Reilly
