I certainly want to continue to write in a way that's intimate. I love books where you feel you're having a romance with the writer.

I didn't know anything about romance novels until a friend suggested that I try writing one. After I read a few, I realized that my favorite part of fiction had always been the relationship aspect.

I love the novel because it's like a love affair. You can just fall into it and keep going, and you never know where it's going to take you.

Every book should have a romance.

I love books.

I write the kinds of novels I like to read, where the setting is rendered with love and care.

I think of my books now as suspense novels, usually with a love story incorporated. They're absolutely a lot harder to write than romances. They take more plotting and real character development.

I love deliberately badly written books.

I don't think with any book you get used to people falling in love with the story. It's been incredible just to realize your books are being read. It's a pretty amazing feeling.

I always think the most romantic books or films are the ones where the romance doesn't happen, because it makes your heart ache so much watching it.
