When you’re looking for your one true love, the last thing you want to do is lie about who you are. But that’s what I did. I told what I like to call the Big Lie. Why? Because I wanted guys at The Breakers to think I was suave and sophisticated, as it is my experience that nobody likes a virgin. So I told the Big Lie until it grew even bigger than I had ever imagined. I had motorcycle gang members coming up to me, jokingly asking me for all kinds of graphic details about how I liked it, none of which I would normally share with strangers. I mean, would you? No, you would not, especially if they started calling you Butt Boy, which was what they were calling me. There was no way out of the nightmare I had created for myself. That is, until my knight in shining armor came along.
Author
Jackie North has been writing stories since grade school and spent years absorbing the mainstream romances that she found at her local grocery store. She also wanted to put her English degree to good use and write romance novels, because for years she’s had a never-ending movie of made-up love stories in her head that simply wouldn’t leave her alone. As fate would have it, she discovered m/m romance and decided that men falling in love with other men was exactly what she wanted to write books about. She creates characters who are a bit flawed and broken, who find themselves on the edge of society, and maybe a few who are a little bit lost, but who all deserve a happily ever after. (And she makes sure they get it!) She likes long walks on the beach, the smell of lavender and rainstorms, and enjoys sleeping in on snowy mornings. She is especially fond of pizza and beer and, when time allows, long road trips with soda fountain drinks and rock and roll music. In her heart, there is peace to be found everywhere, but since in the real world this isn’t always true, Jackie writes for love.
