I love your writing style, and I've probably read Wrong a gazillion times now. How do you come up with your stories? Do you know how the book's going to go before you start, or do you figure out the plot as you write? And do you edit as you go, or do it all at the end?

Oh I'm a hot mess. I wish I knew more of the plot. There's always key elements I know. I almost always know the "meet cute" before I start and a few other details but no, I am not a plotter. I kinda figure it out as I write.
In Right for example - I knew halfway through writing Wrong that Everly was never going to end up with Finn & I was like... it's his brother. And I sorta knew at that point the logistics of it, it made sense to me that she'd never have met Sawyer and from there it was piecing together the set up of that book. The rest of it I mostly figured as I went!

Are all your books about older men? I just finished Fling and just noticed none of the men are close to the women's age...don't get me wrong I loved all your books so far and laughed so hard on how crazy they can be I just noticed that men are way older Luke is 15yrs older than Sofie, Sawyer is about 12yrs older than Everly (I loved her so much) and Gabe is close to 10yrs older than Sandra.
