Who doesn't love a hot cup of fragrant coffee? Coffee is a drink of life that warms you, wakens you, sobers and comforts you. My love of organic gardening and a passion for Hawaiian coffee led me to write this evocative and sensual story. Coffee is grown commercially in the islands of Hawaii, among the major growers--Maui, The Big Island (Kona region) and Kauai. I grew up a-sippin' on Kona coffee. Yes, started drinking the stuff when I was 11 years old! I would love to grow my own orchard of coffee (and macadamia nut) trees on my acre of island property someday. Since all of my books are seeded with some experience or knowledge of something I enjoy (ahem, all of my books deal with passionate, sexy relationships) I imagined a heroine who lived on an organic farm that grew vegetables and gourmet coffee on the island of Maui. Golden Falcone's property supplies estate coffee and fresh vegetables to local restaurants, and that's how she meets, and falls in love, with not one, but two incredibly sexy men--two brothers--one a millionaire, and the other a billionaire. When the father of her baby tragically dies, leaving Golden unwed and pregnant, she agrees to a marriage-of-convenience with Jiovanni Falcone to protect her baby's inheritance from his brother's greedy exes. She doesn't bargain on falling in love...with her own husband! Can she convince her billionaire groom to take a chance on his bargain bride?

Bargain Bride and Billionaire Groom delivered a two hour break from reality as page after page the story came alive that will leave the reader delighting in the feel-good feelings, lifted spirits, and with abounding hope that only a well thought out romance story could bring to a reader.
Forgotten were the daily responsibilities as the story brought an entertaining range of emotions: dismayed, charmed, enchanted, discouraged, hopeful, frightful, arousal, relieved and contentment.
From the beginning, the story captured its essences in Maui, the mystery in the visit, the complications of greedy people in life and the yearnings of a woman and a man. The story didn't slow down at all as it traveled to Colorado and the Maui born and raised girl got a taste of the Colorado snow...and the iciness of jealousy.
What started out as a marriage of convenience quickly turned to sensuality and love; however, all was not golden in paradise as business and one major event occurred that could destroy their lives together...forever...
