Читать книгу The Seal's Return - Patricia Potter - Страница 4

Dear Reader,

It is so good to be writing you again. I appreciate each and every one of you more than I can express.

I thought this time I would say something about the writing process, or at least my writing process, because it was so important to this book.

When I start a book, I know who my two main characters are. I know everything that happened to them through childhood, adolescence and adulthood. I live in their heads.

Then I let them run free on the pages. My original premise changes. The plot changes. The end changes. Events happen that I never expected.

Never has characters’ drive been as strong as in this book. I had no idea how the story would end when I started it. What possibly could satisfy an eighteen-year navy SEAL who lost his very identity after a mission gone bad and two years held as a hostage? I could only hope that Jubal would find his own way.

And then one day he was running as he did every morning, and his life—and Lisa’s—changed. It surprised me as much as it did Jubal. I hope you love the iconic loner as much as I do.

And Lisa? Could she give up the goal she’d had since a child, one that had ruled her life for the past ten years? I wasn’t sure myself.

I hope you love both as much as I do.
