Produktbeschreibung

Modern-day American "prince" Ellis Faraday has a problem: he's been a frog for a year, his time before hibernation is ending, and he's afraid there will be nothing left of him come spring. The castle-house up the hill seems like a promising place to start looking for a cure… if he can convince a human to take him seriously. A conversation-and maybe a kiss-with the pretty man who owns the koi pond might do the trick.On a Friday night, Galen Townsend just wants to curl up and read in the backyard of the house he shares with his brothers, but the frog addressing him from the wall of the koi pond has him questioning his sanity. Moreso when he gives the frog a peck on the nose-just to be nice-and the frog becomes a handsome, precious man.Unfortunately, Galen's "cure" proves temporary. After a few hours, Ellis is back to hopping and croaking, but at least he has an ally and a warm place to stay. Now they just have to keep Galen's brothers from discovering a frog in the house while they work out how to break the spell. How many kisses can it possibly take?

Autorenporträt

"A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions, and the roots spring up and make new trees." - Amelia Earhart The author of numerous successful romance and romantic suspense novels, and a winner of RWA's Passionate Plume Award in 2011, Terry Wylis enjoys exploring the heart of a character, the depth of emotion that drives a person to exhilaration or despair, forming a bridge to the reader. Creating that depth is the first step to the fully-crafted works Terry loves to produce. Terry strives to imbue her stories with kindness, allowing the reader to curl up with a cup of tea and escape the often harsh realities of the world. It may be one small act opening the door to a connection, or a character who adopts kindness as a lifestyle, but as Seneca taught, "Wherever there is a human being, there is an opportunity for a kindness." At the same time, Terry is always "winding the watch of [her] wit; by and by it will strike" (William Shakespeare, The Tempest). The quick quip and witty repartee are her favorite forms of dialogue, and often a story idea will blossom from a single one-liner randomly gifted by her brain. In addition to her literary pursuits, Terry enjoys poetry, crocheting, reading, New Orleans, all things British, forensics, psychology, and world cultures, along with whatever field happens to strike her fancy at the moment.
