I originally came up with the idea for "Little Miss Straight Lace" while stirring spaghetti sauce on my kitchen stove (actually a rarity for me, as, like LMSL's protagonist, I am useless in the kitchen). What I find funny in retrospect is that the final story turned out to be nothing like that original idea, but apparently, cooking a bad meal is the secret to creativity for this author.
“…a great beach read…all the ingredients for a story that’s hard to put down…”
