I love classic sci-fi authors like Arthur C. That’s so hard! I’ll have to say The Princess Bride because it has a bit of everything: true love, high adventure, pirates, princesses, giants, miracles, fencing, and tons more! If you could recommend just one book to read what would it be and why?

I’m frequently guilty of staying up all night and suffering intense drowsiness the next day.Ĥ. I usually wait for the house to quiet down after everyone has gone to sleep, then I bust out my laptop at the dining room table. What is a typical writing day like for you? If you could describe your book in one sentence what would it be?Ī modern-day Jane Eyre meets a (good) Lifetime movie.ģ. The real kids I worked with will always have a place in my heart and thankfully, most of them were not as badly behaved as the duo in my book.Ģ. I wanted to write something that reflected my struggles and adventures in bonding with other people’s children. I wrote this story in my very early twenties, my teenage years full of babysitting and nannying still fresh on my mind. Where did the inspiration for The Nanny Song come from? Can Mallory unlock the mystery intertwined in this chaotic family or will all hope of closure be lost forever?ġ. But when an unspeakable secret is uncovered that bond, and possibly Mallory’s life itself is now at risk. Mallory begins to feel a connection, a whisper of trust between them, that could mean there is still hope for everyone involved to heal. Two worlds collide when Mallory accepts the job as nanny to the Colt children. Each is lost in their own deep grief, but there is more to this family than meets the eye. Since the death of his wife, Brendan Colt has struggled to care for his children Kason and Meela. Meanwhile, a dismal pall hangs over the Colt residence. However the safe, mundane life she has created for herself is quickly turned upside-down when she’s falsely accused of theft and promptly fired. Despite her tumultuous childhood, at twenty-two, she has established herself as a fully functional, self-made woman. Mallory Riscoe is no stranger to dysfunction.
