Kristy Woodson Harvey - BEACH HOUSE RULES

In this interview, I chat with Kristy Woodson Harvey about ⁠⁠⁠⁠Beach House Rules, deciding on a format for telling the story, finding the right title for this one, what surprised her the most about writing this one, why she chose a white collar crime and her reasearch on the subject, and much more. Kristy's recommended reads are: Happy Land by Dolen Perkins Valdez The Unraveling of Julia by Lisa Scottoline The Stolen Life of Colette Marceau by Kristin Harmel Listen to the Friends and Fiction Fifth Anniversary Episode.
