Inside: Dear Reader: In a previous life, before the time of Plum, I wrote 12 short romance novels. Red-hot screwball comedies, each and every one of them. Nine of these stories were originally published by the Loveswept line between the years 1988 and 1992. All immediately went out-of-print and could be found only at used bookstores and yard sales.
I'm excited to tell you that those 9 stories are now being re-released by HarperCollins. "Rocky Road" is at the top of the lineup, and it's presented here in almost original form. I've done only minor editing to correct some embarrassing bloopers missed the first time around.
"Rocky Road" is the happy story of a guy who owns a radio station, a likeable overworked woman who does the traffic report, and a dog named Bob. They all fall in love, they outsmart some bad guys, and they eat a lot of dessert. Doesn't that sound like fun?
I was living in northern Virginia when I wrote "Rocky Road" and I pretty much set it in my backyard. I researched the story by visiting radio stations and riding the beltway in the WTOP traffic car with a multi-tasking lunatic who could drink coffee, drive, and give live traffic reports all at the same time.
I had a great time writing "Rocky Road" and I hope you enjoy reading it. And if you're a Plum fan take special note that this was the very first Bob Dog. -- Janet Evanovich
