A Note from the Author
Often when I am writing, I find myself integrating certain of the personalities I know in real life into my characters. I have recently been asked about those personalities and wanted to verify that indeed, some of these stereotypes are very true. In no time I discovered Reid was a mixture of several personalities: my daughter, my friend and the co-author of one of my blogs, and I are all mixed into the wonderful mash that becomes Reid. Further, Reid's mother is immediately recognizable by one and all to be none other than myself. It wasn't a deliberate intent, it just sort of happened, but there it is. After that, Jase, Gloria, Simone, Robert, Dane, and even good old Jaques are at least somewhat patterned after the colorful people that speckle my life, and I thank them (good or bad) for the inspiration behind these characters. Having said that, I have never really met a person quite like Pia, but I would most certainly like to!
I've had the most fun writing the Hamptons books than I think I've ever had writing before. It feels less like work and more like play every time I do it. I have completely fallen in love with all of the characters (although I do have favorites), and I am often surprised by the antics they get into. I am currently working on the third book in the series and have decided to add a little bonus 'Sneak Peek' at Family and Fiends in the Hamptons. I hope you all look forward to it as much as I do!
Lastly, I want to take a minute to thank my family, my friends, and my fans. You are all appreciated much more than you will ever know!
