ONE of my favorite covers this year:
And one of my favorite, unplanned stories.
“We
come here because I like it and it’s good for business. I’m seen here. You
should pay more attention to that.”
“I can be seen anywhere. I’m
not an anonymous producer, like you. The public knows who I am. My face is
famous. I’m seen everywhere I go. I don’t have to arrange publicity. It just
comes to me…unlike you.”
He narrowed his eyes. “Is it
your time of the month, Elsa?” She threw the water in her
glass at him, drenching his face and hair.
Favorite funny lines:
“I’ve prepared some questions to
help me understand your needs, Mr….ah, Chaz.”
“My needs? You don’t really mean needs, do you?” He chuckled while his
gaze raked her body.
“I mean your financial needs…ah,
maybe goals is a better word.”
“Ah, goals, yes. Goals works for
me.”
“If we can agree on three goals,
then I’ll prepare sort of a proposal…”
“Proposal? You’re going to propose
to me? We’ve known each other such a short time!” He lifted his eyebrows in
mock shock.
From IF I LOVED YOU.
Favorite Picture:
I've been waiting to share with you. Not sure who has the funniest expression!
Favorite supporting character: Bobby, the chauffeur, from Hollywood Hearts who appears in the first four books. This conversation takes place with Grace from MOVIE LOVERS.
“It’s private. I can’t talk about
it,” she mumbled.
“Did ya kill someone?” He shot her a
glance in the rearview mirror.
“No!” She chuckled. “Not that I
wouldn’t like to.”
“Got someone you want me to have rubbed
out?”
Her eyes widened. “You can do that?”
“Nope, but I got your attention.”
She burst out laughing. “Cara didn’t
tell me I’d get a comedy routine on the trip.”
“She forgot that? Geez. I’ll have to
talk to her. Yeah, I always try out my new material on passengers. Captive
audience,” he snickered.
“You do?”
“Gosh, they make ’em gullible in
California. No. I just drive. Sometimes I provide a little guidance…a little
wisdom. Always a sympathetic ear. But the comedy is spontaneous.”
“I didn’t think I could laugh
anymore.” She relaxed against the cushions and looked out the window.
“Never lose your laugh. You look a
lot like your sister.”
“She’s the pretty one. I’m the
studious one.”
“Oh? You calling me a liar? If so,
I’ll have to drive you right back to the airport.”
Grace smiled. “I’m not calling you a
liar, that’s just the way it’s always been.”
“Don’t typecast yourself, honey.
You’re a beautiful girl. Guys here are gonna flip when they meet you.”
“Think so?”
“Hey, I know great women when I see
them. Don’t tell my wife.” He eased them onto the Long Island Expressway.
