Which book do you think had the most heartbreaking scene to write in it?
Debbie Macomber
I have found that my readers and I share a special connection through my stories. If I laugh while writing, I know my readers will laugh and when I cry, they will cry as well. There are many times when I’ve been moved to tears while writing but maybe none as poignant as while writing BETWEEN FRIENDS. The story revolves around two best friends, Jillian and Lesley. In the story one of their love interests goes off to fight in the Vietnam War and never returns. Wayne and I are all too familiar with the ravages the Vietnam War brought to our friends, our communities and to our lives. As I wrote this story I was reminded of good friends who didn’t return and tried my best to capture their story.

You and your Dakota series were my inspiration to become a romance writer. Do you plan to add to that series? Did you find it challenging to have so many stories going at the same time without confusing the reader? You did it perfectly. I couldn't put the books down. How long do you think a series should be?
