Goodreads asked Lacynda Mathes:

What mystery in your own life could be a plot for a book?

Lacynda Mathes I, in fact, was inspired by a real-life fire and disappearance of a woman several years ago in Fulton, IL when I started plotting Forgive Me Not. The fire and disappearance were where the similarities ended, Tragically, I don't believe she was ever found.
