This
is the summer of Annie Sparks—at least according to her. No more
supporting lazy jerks or coddling irresponsible family or taking care
of anyone who doesn’t deserve her help. Instead she’s headed to
an estate in a remote mountain town, to spend her summer with her
boots covered in mud and her hands working the earth. Love is the
last thing on her mind.

Fun Facts about the Nugget Romance Series
1.
The fictional town of Nugget is based on an amalgam of towns in Plumas County,
which is located in California’s Sierra Nevada. My main inspiration was the
town of Portola, less than an hour from Reno, Nevada.
2.
There was a real-life burger restaurant called the Bun Boy in Baker, California
(nowhere near Plumas County) but it’s now closed. I used to eat there on my way
to Death Valley and the name stuck. So, when I decided to include a burger
joint as one of the businesses in Nugget it was a no brainer to call it the Bun
Boy.
3.
The inspiration for Sierra Heights, Nugget’s sole gated community, came from
Grizzly Ranch in Portola. It’s a gorgeous subdivision with a golf course that
seems slightly out of place in an otherwise rustic town. My husband and I like
to make fun of it, but secretly, we want a home there.
4.
The area of the Sierra Nevada that I write about is not far from where the
Donner Party tragedy happened. I’ve always been obsessed with this piece of
California history because hello, cannibalism. The heroine in the first book in
the series, Going Home, is also obsessed with it.
5.
The Feather River, which is a landmark in all my Nugget books, is completely
real and absolutely spectacular. And as I write this was at risk of overflowing
due to all the rain we’ve gotten in California.
