Today is one of those beautiful autumn days with just enough warmth in the air to carry a hint of spring instead of the winter we know to be looming around the corner.  I’d imagine the Iuliano brothers – Rafe, Tony and Vince – spent the early part of the day fishing the surf for Stripped Bass in Audubon Springs followed by great food, family and football.   

As for me, the day was spent with great food, family, and soccer. Now, as I settle into the early evening, my mind is back in Audubon Springs and tasks that still need to be done before I can, in good conscious, leave this beach town for good. Edits for THE RIGHT CHORD hit my inbox on Friday. While Vince and his one true love are a priority for me, (please don’t tell Rafe or Tony, but I have a HUGE soft spot for Vince), my thoughts have been focused on another character lately, and SHE is not a brother.

Mia – cousin, friend, and confidant – deserves her own story.  She’s stood by on the side lines for far too long.  I started writing a holiday novella for Mia a few weeks ago. Only now that I’ve gotten a bit farther along, I’m beginning to realize her story might not be a simple holiday novella tale.  Hopefully my subconscious can work out the finer details of her story while I tackle Vince’s edits.

Any guesses as to who might be the love of Mia’s life?
