"In my upcoming novel, "Playing with Fire," I realized just before I completed the manuscript that I'd left out the most crucial scene--the one in which the heroine and hero admit their love to each other. I submerged myself in photos and videos of the setting (a forest fire in Colorado) and launched myself into an extended and multi-sensory daydream to create the story's climax."

Can a rejected wife conquer self-doubt, trap a criminal, and win love? A patron saint might help...
Thirty-something Joan Nelson has more to contend with than a biological clock or an identity crisis. Despite her ardent belief in a conventional marriage, she finds herself deserted for a younger, slimmer woman. Lacking any skills or education, she's thrust unprepared into the nightmare challenge of making a living for the first time in her sheltered existence.
A job as a receptionist in a law firm is the first rung on the ladder to her independence. Yet the taste of success sours when Joan considers the emptiness of her personal life. How can she reconstruct her damaged life and heal her bruised ego? Ill-equipped for the singles scene, she embarks on a confusing, sometimes frightening, new lifestyle.
When Joan stumbles on a crime perpetuated by a charming cad, she must defy her boss, jeopardize her newly won stability, and reject her friends. Her namesake, Joan of Arc, provides a model of courage and insight. If she risks danger and uncertainty, will she discover that independence and adulthood can be both enjoyable and fulfilling? Does optimism beat pessimism? Who would have dreamed her final victory could solve a childhood puzzle while it brings her true love?
I'm so excited for your upcoming novel, Playing with Fire. It sounds right up my alley for a number of reasons.
ReplyDeleteI'm still trying to catch my breath after reading your books, Kim :)
DeleteIf Bonnie McCune injects her sparkling, signature humor into Playing With Fire, I can only imagine how she's going to 'torment' her characters :)
