See—relationships already!
By the time I was ten, I was telling romantic-suspense stories, using my Sandra Sue dolls. These were the precursors to Barbie. They were little action-figure girls, without the breasts and the elongated bodies. I’d make up adventures for them where they were captured by pirates, whisked away to a mountain cabin, or spirited onto a luxury yacht by a handsome millionaire.
Camille and Nick have set off sexual sparks since they first met. But because Nick works for her father, he thinks a relationship isn’t appropriate. Also, Nick’s from a poor, dysfunctional family, and he thinks he’s not good enough for Camille. While they’re hiding out from the mobster, can she make him realize that the two of them belong together?
Good morning Rebecca and Mimi, love the concept for this collection of books, who doesn't love a wedding, 🙂 Ty for the cookbook, I look forward to trying out everyone's recipes. I think it's great that you overcame dyslexia to follow your dreams. It proves if we try, we can succeed 🙂

Thanks! My husband has a theory that dyslexia actually helps creativity. Now, if we could just write it down.
Wow! I found it so interesting that your creativity emerged in early childhood and you've kept that going through your fiction. And I love the cookbook idea. So pleased to read about your journey.
Thanks! Yes, I always did want to be a writer but thought that would be impossible because so many teachers beat me up (figuratively) over my spelling. The cookbook was a lot of fun!
Hi Rebecca,
I enjoyed your blog, congratulations on a fantastic career in writing. Some of us started a bit late….. so we may not get quite that number of books out. 🙂 And congratulations Mimi on a great website and newsletter.

I'm glad you didn't let dyslexia stop you. You've entertained thousands and thousands of people over the years and I suspect you'll continue to do so for years to come.
Hi Rebecca,
So please to read your blog with Mimi, I've enjoyed many of your books and look forward to reading this one too! Can't beat weddings: ) Best wishes.
Thanks for the comments. The dyslexia was very frustrating. As a kid, I developed handwriting where you couldn't tell an i from an e or and s from a c. That sort of worked, but you can't do it in print, of course! And spell checker isn't going to tell you you have the wrong word in the wrong place.
