I don't think I ever really meant to write about Abby's daughter, Lexi. She was a background character in Abby's books - the reason she had to leave town all those years ago. At some point, she became the first of what I like to call my difficult heroines. Lexi is bratty and troubled and as stubborn and closed off as any of my heroes. She does things that don't seem rational unless you know her whole story. She's actually a lot like me. Which is likely why when I needed a new pen name, I took it from her. Fun facts--this book was one of my first books that was a discussion about therapy as well--which becomes a whole theme later. Also, Lucas is absolutely one of Chloe Vale's favorite heroes I've ever written.
