  Hints:

  Any combination of seafood can be used. If ya have crawfish available and ya like it, by all means use that. I like shrimp ’cause of the chewy texture and crawfish or crab fer the flavor.

  Ya kin use other seafood, too. Like scallops or mussels or clams… whatever ya got in yer ice box.

  Iffen ya want ta plan ahead, ya kin make this dish and serve the next day.

  Enjoy, good friends!

  Hey chère (and cher)!

  How’s yer mama?

  My good friend Sandra Hill, bless her heart, asked me ta write y’all a little letter ’bout her books, ’specially this latest SO INTO YOU one since it involves my new foundation.

  Doan it jist break yer heart ta see all the folks still sufferin’ from Hurrycane Katrina? Then, jist when ya think things might settle down, another hurrycane, like Ike, whomps our coastal towns. Seems like God (and St. Jude) wants ta keep us on our toes all the time. Well, ya’ll know I never give up hope.

  Didja like Angel and Grace’s story? Those two were hard nuts ta crack when it come ta my matchmakin’, but then St. Jude allus comes through fer me.

  I still got lots of hope chests ta give out ta them wild LeDeux men. I’m thinkin’ Daniel and Aaron LeDeux are ripe fer the pickin’. Mebbe I’ll call their story BAYOU KNIGHTS.

  Hope ya try the recipe fer my Seafood Étouffée right here in the back of this book. And the one fer Peachy Praline Cobbler Cake in the back of WILD JINX. There ain’t nothin’ like good Cajun food.

  Come visit Sandra’s Web site at www.sandrahill.net and tell us what ya think of her Cajun books. There’s been eight so far: THE LOVE POTION, TALL, DARK AND CAJUN, THE CAJUN COWBOY, THE RED-HOT CAJUN, PINK JINX, PEARL JINX, WILD JINX, and SO INTO YOU.

  I’m plannin’ on havin’ my very own blog on Sandra’s Web site sometime soon if only I kin figger out what all them abbreviations mean. Like LOL and LMAO. Tee-John says he’ll help me. ’Course he’ll probably slip in somethin’ wicked, without me knowin’.

  And mebbe someday I might even write a short story ’bout my very own love, Philippe Prudhomme, who died in the big war. On the other hand, mebbe it would be too x-rated fer you folks.

  (Tee-John showed me how ta do that grin thingee.)

  As always, I wish ya joie de vivre, and Sandra wishes ya smiles in yer readin’.

  About the Author

  Sandra Hill is the best-selling author of more than thirty novels and the recipient of numerous awards.

  Readers love the trademark humor in her books, whether the heroes are Vikings, Cajuns, navy SEALs, or treasure hunters, and they tell her so often, sometimes with letters that are laugh-out-loud funny. In addition, her fans feel as if they know the characters in her books on a personal basis, especially the outrageous Tante Lulu.

  At home in central Pennsylvania with her husband, four sons, and a dog the size of a horse, Sandra is always looking for new sources of humor. It’s not hard to find.

  Two of her sons have Domino’s Pizza franchises, and one of the two plays in poker competitions. They swear they are going to write a humor book titled The Pizza Guys’ Guide to Poker.

  Her husband, a stockbroker, is very supportive of her work. He tells everyone he is a cover model. In fact, he made that claim one time when she did a radio interview and swears the traffic around their home was heavy for a while as people tried to get a gander at the handsome model. Then there was the time he made a blow-up of one of her early clinch covers with a hunk and a half-naked woman and hung it in his office. He put a placard under it saying, “She lost her shirt in the stock market… but does she look like she cares?”

  So be careful if you run into Sandra. What you say or do may end up in a book. If you want to take the chance, you can contact her through her Web site at www.sandrahill.net.
