"This book is part of the Calendar Girls series. Bret Haverston is flash enough to date centerfold models—Miss January to be specific. What could he possibly want with ordinary, size fourteen Callie Stamos? But what Callie doesn't know is that Bret is ready for more. He's ready for Miss February. Seven years ago, in high school, Bret asked Callie to the Valentine's Day Dance. Seven years ago, she turned him down. And for seven years, he's waited for a second chance at the girl who got away. Bret's not taking any more chances on Callie's love. He'll lie if he has to, cheat all the fates and steal her away for a romantic weekend—then tie her down if that's what it takes. One way or another, Bret's going to live out his long-awaited fantasy. And at the end of this Valentine's Day, he's marrying his Miss February."

Employed as an engineer, I’ve worked in an underground mine that went up—inside a mountain. I’ve swung over the Ohio River in a tiny cage suspended from a crane in the middle of an electrical storm. I’ve hung over the Hudson River at midnight in an aluminum boat suspended from a floating barge at the height of a blizzard, while snowplows on the bridge overhead rained slush and salt down on my shoulders. You can’t do this sort of work without developing a sense of humor and a taste for adventure. A relative newcomer to the publishing industry, I read my first romance five years ago and decided to try my hand at writing. Both my reading and writing habits are subject to mood and I usually have several stories going at once. When I need a really good idea for a story, I clean toilets. Now there’s an activity that engenders escapism. I was surveying when I met my husband. He was my ‘rod man’. While I was trying to get my crosshairs on his stadia rod, he dropped his pants and mooned me. Next thing I know, I’ve got the backside of paradise in my viewfinder. So I grabbed the walkie-talkie. “That’s real nice,” I told him, “but would you please turn around? I’d rather see the other side.” It was love at first sight. From her website: "Except for a handful of big names, authors don't make that much money. Over eight years I wrote twenty-odd stories but couldn't make a living as a writer. I'm fortunate that I have a second career to fall back on and have returned to my old job. Taking into account my current work load, I doubt I will finish another story. ...but it was fun while it lasted! I am removing my books from circulation as I get my rights back from my publisher. cheers! madison hayes" Contact Information Email: madison@madison-hayes.com
