Goodreads asked Mari Suggs:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Mari Suggs The idea for Falling For You came from when I was visiting Key Largo, Florida for my husband's work. While there, I found there wasn't much to do--unless you drove a half hour into a bigger city, so I started to wonder what it would be like to live like that, furthermore to love living like that. I began creating this character "Rachel" who was born and raised there and loved everything about the island. Then, coming from my own perspective, I created "Luke," a character who couldn't comprehend how people lived without the comforts that came from living in a big city: New York. This is where the story begins.
