I had a blast chatting with Tasha about her Hadley Springs series. I'm thinking we need to urge her to go on to do more than just major holidays. What about National Donut Day or Beach Reads Day (that's a thing, right?  If not, maybe she can make it one!) Planning for Nickie by Tasha Hackett  "Fifty-three weeks is plenty of time to find a wife. One week to plan, fifty-two to execute." Career-obsessed Mark is history. From now on, my heart is open and ready for a family. No more fifth wheel. No more working alone through dinner in restaurant booths. Solo Mark is out. Family man is in. As with every challenge, I've divided the task into a step-by-step process. While on holiday in Hadley Springs, Nebraska, I drafted the twelve-month plan. I included a detailed description of what I'm looking for and a spreadsheet for the expected timeline. Project: Find-A-Wife will commence as soon as I return home to Phoenix. It's all well and good until I join my cousins on a blizzard walk for a few donuts. Who knew a chance encounter with a scrubs-wearing, sweet-smiling, schedule-wrecking woman would derail my life so efficiently? To Do: 1. Drink coffee 2. Review the plan 3. Find a wife *** If you loved the Carol Award-winning novel, Waiting for Gilbert (Holidays in Hadley Springs, Book 1), get ready to fall in love all over again in Hadley Springs, Nebraska.
