On Tuesday Crazy Thing Called Love is released! The third and final book in my Crooked Creek series. A few months ago when Stephanie's fantastic One Final Step was released she said - It's the best thing she'd ever done. And I know the common refrain from authors is that they love their books like children and could never pick of favorite - and mostly that's true. But sometimes a book comes a long that kicks my butt.(I'm looking at you Wild Child). And sometimes a book comes along like a gift - Crazy Thing Called Love was a gift. Mostly, my hero Billy Wilkins, with all his torture and all his pain finally outmatched by his desire to be love and be loved, was a gift.
This is my favorite book.
I hope you'll check it out and let me know what you think.
I'm also running a very fun CRAZY LITTLE THINGS contest on my facebook page.
What about you, fellow authors? Are some books gifts and others problem children?

I am in book hell currently. It simply won't end. Although the good news is I'm liking it more re-reading it, then I did writing it. So I guess that's a plus.
Congratulations, Molly!!! I'm so excited about this book! Readers are going to love it. :)
Some books definitely kick my butt more than others... My most recent butt-kicking book was Compliance, the one that comes out in June... The one I'm writing now, disregarding how long it's taking me, is coming much easier. For this one I blame me and not the book. :)
Mazel tov, Molly! May it fly from the shelves!!!
I'm not sure if any of my books have been total gifts. There have been places in each one of them where I've gotten stuck or confused or something. I do remember a point in Do Me, Do My Roots where I figured out what was holding me back and the rest of the book flowed out of my fingertips into the computer like magic. That was fun.
The one I'm revising right now is a definite butt-kicker and has been from day one of its inception. I'm hoping that's just what happens when you push yourself to do something new.
Beautiful Cover, Molly. I like the new look of the blog (if it's been this way awhile, sorry. It's been awhile since I stopped by).
I do have books that are like gifts and those that are like pulling teeth.
