Joanne, I’m in awe of your synopsis writing skills! That’s truly one of the hardest things to nail in this biz, and yours was magnificent. So much great story revealed in such a short space.

I’m with Heidi, hurry up and get bought girl. We MH authors are waiting to welcome you into the fold!

Hi Christine,

Thank you! I’m really glad you enjoyed it, and I agree – the editors comments are gold dust. I’m relieved that the title’s given people a smile – I cringe a bit whenever I see it. I was in such a faff to get it in before the deadline and couldn’t think of anything more sensible!

Hi Heidi,
Thank you so much for your message – I am a little bit star struck, I love your books! I so so so so so SO hope you’re right – it’s the stuff my dreams are made of.
And lol, OK, i’ll hurry up.

This is a really well written synopsis… And I agree with Christine the title is a hoot… I have no doubt after reading Joanne’s chapter and story outline that we’re going to be welcoming her to the Modern Heat fold very soon.

But for goodness sake hurry up woman, I want to read the rest of this book!

Aha!

I knew it! He’s a widower, poor Jack. And poor Nancy, bless.

The editor’s comments are so enlightening too.

And Joanne has a great voice, I look forward to reading the rest.
I loved the Cinderella twist and the title of the book too.

Well done.

Christine
