After Dallas, Laidey Bartholomew finds Henderson to be a breath of fresh air. Out from under the expectations of her socialite family, she can be as invisible as she chooses. She's perfectly happy flying under the radar, until a hot-tempered, masculine work of art roars into town on his Road King and zeroes in on her. All of a sudden, Laidey's not invisible anymore. Xavier Wright hasn't lived in Henderson for fourteen years. You'd think by now everyone would have forgotten about his juvenile antics. Knowing his sick ma doesn't need any additional stress in her life, he's determined to make amends for his bad-boy ways. Unfortunately, a certain little newcomer continually brings out the worst in him. She's way too prissy for him. He's way too domineering for her. Harry believes it's a match made in heaven.

Growing up every summer in a place where dancing and romancing are literally part of its theme song, Liz Kelly can't help but be a romantic at heart. And since her favorite author, Kathleen E. Woodiwiss wrote some of the world's greatest romances, she's just trying to give the world a little more of that. (Okay, maybe a little sexier that, but we are now in a new millennium after all.) A graduate of Wake Forest University, where she met her handsome golf-addicted husband (who is now sporting dark glasses everywhere he goes), Liz is a mother of two grown sons (also sporting dark glasses) and a miniature Labradoodle named Annabelle. They split their time between The Windy City of Chicago and the Fountain of Youth, a.k.a. Naples, Florida, where dancing and romancing continues on ad infinitum.
