      To my children,

      Darren, Damon and Saritha,

      you bring nothing but great joy to my life.

      And…

      to my husband, David,

      I love you.

      SUSAN LUTE

      lives in the Pacific Northwest, in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains. She married her high school sweetheart, has three children who are “the best thing she’s done with her life” and a dog named Wolfe.

      Susan is fascinated by ancient history, loves reading, gardening, black-and-white photographs and traveling. She’s a veteran of the Portland to Coast Relay and plans one day to hike the Pacific Crest Trail.

      By day she is a registered nurse. By night she loves to spin tales that resemble her own happy-ever-after, about that click of instant recognition that happens when a man and woman fall head over heels in love. When writing, her priorities include that first vanilla latté in the morning and a steady infusion of chocolate.

      Dear Reader,

      Used to moving from place to place with my family, I was thirteen the summer I discovered a lifelong friend in the guise of a book titled Black Beauty. Thus began my career as a reader, which ultimately led to aspirations of becoming a writer. For me, writing about that special, true love is like finally coming home.

      I must confess to being an ardent student of human nature. Add a fascination for the ridiculous and the unusual, and you have the conception of Eleanor and Dillon’s story. I knew I wanted to explore the relationships between grandparent, parent and child. Oops…We’re Married? is about widower Dillon Stone and how he reacts when his father and son decide they heartily approve of Eleanor Silks, a corporate librarian so totally opposite from the wife and mother he’s decided he has to find.

      When I wondered what these two different people would do if they accidentally got married after being thrown together as contestants at a dating-game benefit dinner, their story ran away with me. There’s nothing more devastating than love gone horribly wrong, and nothing more heavenly…and satisfying than love when it goes completely right. In the end, only Eleanor and Dillon could tell me how their love would triumph.

      In heartfelt appreciation to Silhouette for this opportunity, I give you my first book….
