Dear Reader,

Welcome to a new trilogy—the South Shore Billionaires! I had so much fun writing this holiday story to kick it off. There are so many of my personal loves in this book, from favorite holiday movies to the scent of evergreens to Junior’s pineapple cheesecake—introduced to me by Damon Suede and which I agreed was “life changing.” Christmas in New York is magical!

I wrote this story during a time when I was facing a lot of emotional challenges. It’s funny how life sometimes sends you multiple crises in a row and somehow you get through it. It’s pretty appropriate, then, that the beach by the Sandpiper Resort is based on a place my husband and I visit each summer; a stunning, kilometer-long stretch of sand on Nova Scotia’s South Shore. Why is it appropriate? Because as I was dealing with each crisis, my husband was right there with me, holding my hand and being my rock. Just like he has been for the past twenty-three years. (Yes, clearly I was a child bride!)

I hope you get swept away in Jeremy and Tori’s story! And look for Bran’s story, coming soon!

With love,

Donna
