Читать книгу Last Chance Hero - Melinda Di Lorenzo - Страница 4

Dear Reader,

When I first came up with the idea for Last Chance Hero, I was actually envisioning a short story with a horror vibe. I pictured a woman coming home alone to find signs of an intrusion—little things that only she would know that signaled her house has been disturbed. I had the whole scenario mapped out in my head. I pictured her walking up her driveway, an ominous feeling building in her chest. The lighting would have to be perfect—dim and spooky, with just a hint of color from the moon above. And as with most scary tales, the heroine realizes a second too late that she should’ve trusted her instincts.

The imaginary opening played out in my head again and again, never feeling quite right until I realized my heroine wasn’t alone in the fight for her life. A damaged hero was waiting on the sidelines, prepared to come to her aid the moment she needed it.

The hero, of course, became Donovan Grady, damaged and needing redemption. The heroine grew into Jordynn Flannigan. And from the moment Donovan jumped in, I knew that instead of finding a ghost around the corner, Jordynn would find something far more nerve-racking—a second chance at first love.

As always, I hope my story keeps you on the edge of your seat, makes your heart race a little faster and leaves you with a smile on your face.

Melinda
