About the author

National bestselling author Millie Criswell didn't start out to be a writer. Instead, she had aspirations of joining the Rockettes as a toe-tapping member of their dancetroop, or tapping her heart away in one of those big, corny MGM musicals. Of course she was only ten at the time, had absolutely no talent as a dancer, and cannot be blamed for her failure to succeed.

To date, Ms. Criswell has written twenty-one historical, category, and contemporary romances. She has won numerous awards, including the Romantic Times Career Achievement Award, the Reviewers' Choice Award, the National Reader's Choice Award, and the coveted MAGGIE Award from Georgia Romance Writers.

Ms. Criswell resides in Virginia with her husband of thirty-two years. She has two grown children, both lawyers, and one neurotic Boston terrier

Reviews

[Haylee]

An amazing book indeed, picked it up in a little book store in Surfers Paradise and instantly fell in love with it. The more you get to know the characters you feel there's a connection. Really wish they made this into a movie.

I do not mind a romance but could not get into this Book at all. It was just too predictable and I could not get into any of the characters.
