I was at a loss for a story idea for my second book for Love Inspired Romantic Suspense. My brain felt like mush and every thought I did come up just didn't get me excited so I knew it wouldn't excite my readers.
And then I had a dream!
In my dream I saw a letter lying on a table and I was intrigued to see what was written on it.It began "By the time you get this letter, I'll be dead." Well, that certainly caught my interest. It continued with "I know you don't understand why I left without a word. But for your safety, I could not tell you then and don't dare tell you now.
They're coming..."
And then I woke up.
I don't often have dreams and I rarely remember them. But this dream wouldn't leave. I puzzled over it for weeks. Who wrote the letter? And who did they write it to? Why did the person leave? And who was in danger and why?
As I began to piece together the answers to these questions, Double Identity took shape and became one of this month's Love Inspired Romantic Suspense books.
I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. I'd love to hear from you. You can email me at diane@dianeburkeauthor.com or follow me on twitter.com/burkediane or friend me at facebook.
Hearing from my readers is even more fun than dreaming!!
