Hi, Missy! Thank you for asking about The Girls of Mischief Bay. Nicole is a young mom whose husband quit his job to write a screenplay. Does she have a right to complain, or is it her duty as his wife to support his dream? Pam is happily married, but her marriage is getting dusty. She comes up with some hysterical ways to rekindle the spark. Shannon’s story is a true romance. So exciting for her friends to watch her fall in love! She wasn’t sure it would ever happen for her.
My editor, agent, and I do the title dance with every book, and then we run them past the sales department. The last time one of my original titles was used was Falling for Gracie, which was, oh, ten years ago. LOL I don’t have a great track record! I got all squealy inside, though, when someone suggested The Girls of Mischief Bay.
