Will margaritas ever taste sweet again?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLaney Delaney, a wedding dress designer, thought her fling with Andy in Cancun was more than that-until he admitted he had a fiancée. Brokenhearted, Laney returns to LA and deals with the demands of temperamental brides and their mothers while trying to forget Andy (whose image is in her mind every time she drinks a margarita).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe meets Kyle, a young lawyer, who has just what it takes to heal her wounded heart. But when Kyle's marriage proposal never turns into an actual wedding, and he spends more and more time at the office, Laney's happiness sours. Enter a surprise encounter with Andy and an even worse surprise on her kitchen counter and what's a girl to do?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fun and flirty novella by Charlene Ross, a breakout voice in chick lit, is a must-read!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInterview with the Author\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat was your inspiration to write the Frosted Cowboy series?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a writing class, the teacher had us pull an adjective and a verb from a hat. I got frosted and cowboy. \"What the heck am I going to do with that?\" I thought, so I just wrote, \"'I'll have a Frosted Cowboy,' I said to the bartender.\" I wrote two pages and turned it in; my teacher loved it and wanted more. So I developed it into the story of a woman whose Plan A didn't work out when she had never even considered a Plan B. At the time, my own Plan A was failing, and I had never really considered a Plan B. My story is nothing like Laney's, but I wanted to see where her story would go.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIt seems your books could fit into several genres. How would you categorize them?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLaney Delaney is a lovable heroine who finds herself in ridiculous dating and work situations, so I'd categorize them as chick lit or romantic comedies. There's light-hearted romance and of course some sex, but I wouldn't say they're sexy romance novels; more romantic comedy novels. Anyone looking for love, or who could use a laugh, will enjoy this series!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow is Laney's story different from other chick lit?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWait, are you saying a chick lit heroine who catches her fiancé cheating on her and then loses her job and has to start over again isn't original?! I'm kidding of course. What sets Laney apart is she's sassy, yet not cool. I liked the idea of a fashion designer who was talented and creative, but not very fashionable. She's a fish out of water, but doesn't know how to jump in the pool, or even if she wants to. In business and in love, she's searching for her true passion and struggles to reconcile what she thinks she needs with what she thinks she wants.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDo you have any more books planned?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. I don't want to say too much because I'm a bit superstitious, but I'm in the early stages of writing a book intersecting present-day lives of people who share a past. There might be a love triangle. And a little sex. And hopefully a lot of laughter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThanks for reading!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ZYX\/DISCOMAGIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47052809470192,"sku":"9780692631751","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780692631751_p0.jpg?v=1763610800","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780692631751","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
