A Note to Readers

Madigan Wicked has been one of my favorite characters since I first met her in TAMING MY WHISKEY (The Whiskeys: Dark Knights at Peaceful Harbor). She is feisty and confident, and having grown up with a gaggle of brothers and male cousins, she knows how to hold her own. But she’s suffered loss and heartbreak, and although she believes in love for others, she isn’t looking for it for herself. I knew her hero would have to challenge her as much as he adored her and connect with her in a fiery way in order for her to really open up to him. Tobias Riggs is strikingly handsome, broody, intelligent, and mysterious. Madigan Wicked has met her match, and I hope you love them as much as I do.

Music plays a large role in many of my stories, and as a musical storyteller, music plays a large part in Madigan Wicked’s life. I am forever grateful to my son Jake Foster (aka musician Blue Foster) for not only allowing me to use his lyrics in my stories but for also performing Madigan Wicked’s song “Kiss Off” so I could share it with readers. You can find “Kiss Off” on my website, Spotify, and all major music-streaming services, listed by (fictional) artist Madigan Wicked. Madigan also creates greeting cards, and I couldn’t resist creating her booty-call line. You can find them here: www.MadTruthAboutLove.com.
