A note from Eloisa: We wrote this novel on a visit to New Orleans, sitting around madly plotting and writing during the day, then eating fabulous food at night. I think these novels are even more fun to read than an average romance—because you have all the delight of our three voices, both separately and woven together. ~Eloisa
