A Romance Writer’s Real Life ‘Love at First Sight’ Story

While I was very clearly NOT on the “market”, not looking for a man, and not interested in a relationship, I was nowhere near what Gregg was looking for, either. As I talked about on my Hallee the Homemaker blog during the study of The Power of a Praying Wife, Gregg would pray to God, “Dear God, please let me meet a wife, but she must have never been married, have no children, be able to have children, be shorter than me, and live within fifty miles of me.” I met absolutely none of those standards. As such, when we arranged to have him come fix my computer, he was coming to fix my computer. Neither one of us had any concept of anything else.

Corrupted Files

I’ve had several people contact me and say that the Topaz Heat that they downloaded from both Amazon and Barnes & Noble last week had a lot of formatting errors and what looked like typos.  Things were out of place in the story, sentences ended and were never completed, and scenes were out of order. I don’t know what happened to …

In my opinion, it’s the best book I’ve written.  Hopefully, …
