Dear Reader:
In a prior lifestyles, earlier than the time of Plum, I wrote twelve brief romance novels. Red-hot screwball comedies, each one in all them. 9 of those tales have been initially released by way of the Loveswept line among the years 1988 and 1992. All instantly went out of print and will be came across in basic terms at used bookstores and backyard sales.
I'm excited to inform you that these 9 tales are actually being re-released via HarperCollins. Naughty Neighbor is the 8th within the lineup, and it really is offered right here in nearly unique shape. frequently whilst I edit those books I do a little modernizing. for example, i alter VHS to DVD, and curler skates to Rollerblades, and sticks of gum at the moment are items of gum. I do that as the books have been intended to be modern (as against historical), and that i don't need the reader to have a time disconnect. firstly of the unique Naughty Neighbor, my heroine throws a hand-held mobile into the bathroom, and the following morning she is going into the rest room and sees the "slim silver antenna stuck among the lavatory lid and seat." ok, so such a lot telephones do not need prolonged antennas anymore, yet I simply enjoyed the picture . . . so I left it in. and that i have no idea what number girls put on front-closure bras anymore, yet that acquired left in, too.
Naughty Neighbor is likely one of the so much romancey of all of the Loveswepts I wrote, yet there is nonetheless a small secret to resolve. Louisa Brannigan is a no-nonsense, hardworking press secretary, struggling with her technique to the pinnacle of Capitol Hill, without support from her demanding neighbor, Pete Streeter. He gets telephone calls all evening lengthy, he steals her morning paper, he thinks denims are formal put on, and worst of all he is concerned Louisa within the disappearance of a pig. So this is often the tale of a pig in Witness security and love being discovered through a workaholic girl and a fun-loving guy who makes bad pots of coffee.
Enjoy!

He was a bulldozer. If she wasn’t careful, he’d be ordering her around, sending her off to chase down pigs.
