It was a dark and . . . snowy afternoon in Ohio . . .

That’s a lie, it was a cold, dark night in Ohio. April, 1995. Storms threatened and the next day they came. But that was the night when I met Lori Foster for the first time.

Visualize a hotel suite filled with boxes, bags, piles of books, plates of food, packs of soda, lots of women, mostly in long, comfy T-shirts–yes, it was the night before a conference started and final preparations were in progress.

Enter one small, blond person with sparkly blue eyes and a mouth set in a determined line (read, "Okay, enough of this messing around–let’s organize this heap," or something similar)

Lori Foster had arrived.

Lori Foster about a year before the publication of her first book–not that any of us can imagine that this whirlwind of talent and style was ever unpublished. We have devoured her books ever since.

We old Quills welcome new Quill Lori with a loud chorus of, "We think you’re wonderful!"

We asked Lori to tell us about MURPHY’S LAW, her next single title book, due out in September, 2006 and now you shall be tantalized, teased and tormented:

"ANYTHING THAT CAN GO WRONG . . .

Nothing is going to go wrong. Ashley Miles has worked too hard for herindependence to let some Bentley-driving hunk named Quinton Murphy interfere with her plans—or her freedom. Yes, the chemistry is phenomenal. Kind of scary, actually. But that’s it. NO emotional commitments.

. . . WILL

But he’s SO wonderful—a woman could fall in love . . . How did thathappen? That wasn’t part of the plan! But can she trust him? Really trust him? The man is just so mysterious. There’s only one solution: put it all on the line and see what Quinton does when she tells him how she feels. And hope everything that can go wrong . . . won’t.."


You don’t need more from me.
Cheers, Stella
