Far Chance

Invited to an ex-girlfriend’s wedding some sixteen hours away by plane, Noah Colfee is certain of three things: long-haul flights should be outlawed by the Geneva Convention, he doesn’t particularly want to see Suyin again, and he definitely knows the handsome stranger loitering in the lobby of his hotel. The family resemblance between the man making eyes at him and Noah’s ex-girlfriend is so uncanny that they could be siblings. There’s just one problem: Suyin has just one sibling—a sister. With lavish wedding festivities underway, Noah’s moods swing wildly between overwhelmed and restless as his hopes of a painless break are scuppered by the presence of a former lover. But if past is prophecy, Noah already ran off his lover eight years ago. Is there any sense in hoping for second chances?

Born and raised in Montreal, Quebec, Canada I still call Montreal home. Surrounded by my husband, five children and my Siamese cat. I love reading, the smell of spring rain and walking in the first snowfalls of December when the snow is crunchy, especially at night. I enjoy curling up with a book and losing myself in the characters. I turned that love towards writing to create stories I hope you love too. I believe everyone is entitled to their own person happily ever after :)

One of my first memories as a child is my Uncle Roy giving me a Little Golden book for my Birthday. That’s all it took, I was hooked on reading. I read my first romance book at seventeen and never looked back. I love a bad boy who doesn’t know how good he really is. As a matter of fact I married one! I love writing strong female characters who know what they want and aren’t afraid to go after it. I like some humor and of course always a happy ending. I have to have some heart. I love getting to share the characters in my head with others.I aspire to write bad boys as well as Anne Stuart, whose Ice Series is one of my favorites. I share my home with about one hundred Barbies, countless books and movies, a rescued beagle named Samwise Gamgee (Sammie for short) and a plump, elderly cat named Coco. I am most proud of my two sons and the beautiful, talented ladies they married. And in case you were wondering that Little Golden book is still one of my most priceless treasures…forty-seven years later.
