Yesterday afternoon, while I was working on the "American Star" series that's loosely based on the reality TV show "American Idol", I received an e-mail letting me know that PRETTY MAN is being released on ravenous. I'm told we're shooting for the 17th, and I'm thinking all this bitter cold weather in the east is perfect timing for this book. One of my goals with PRETTY MAN was to incorporate a good old fashioned romance with some steamy, passionate scenes.

I'll write more about PRETTY MAN next week. But I thought it would be interesting to mention that if the title hadn't been PRETTY MAN, it would have been "You have Chocolate on your Tooth." And that's because part of the novel is set on wonderful, old Bleecker Street in Greenwich Village, where there's a fictional book shop that sells fine French chocolates. It's not far from the real-life bakery, Magnolia, where I've personally waited in line many times for their out-of-this- world cupcakes. On a warm summer night, it's hard to find another place where there's a street as romantic and endearing as Bleecker Street in New York. People can smell the aroma of rich, creamy chocolates all the way up to the avenue, and this little book shop is where the main characters meet and fall in love. An antique sign hanging above the chocolate counter reads, in French, "“Vous avez de la chocolat sur votre dent.”

I haven't seen the cover for PRETTY MAN yet, but from what I've been told I'm going to like it a lot.
