But "The Coffee Shop" was mainly inspired by what I had assumed would be the usual every day phone call from my mother about a boy named Matthew and the people who helped him all they could. And to those people, including my own mother, I am extremely proud of and encouraged by their efforts. It is their stories and the struggles they faced that inspired me to write about a boy like Matthew, who despite all odds, rose above it all to better his life and about a girl who was fortunate enough to watch him spread his wings.
You might be wondering why I chose to take this direction for a story. This is a romance, I promise you, but a difficult one. So many people's past are much darker than our own, and I am determined to give those women and men, like Caleb and Peyton, the story and love they deserve.
