As you may already know, we absolutely love Jane Porter over here at CLC. What's not to love though?!? She's kind, down-to-earth, generous, funny and, of course, an incredible writer.

Amy and Melissa A. got to meet her in person this past year (see pictures here) and she's even more wonderful when you meet her face-to-face. Her personality just shines through in her writing, as she really knows how to connect with her readers. In fact, we even nominated her for the International Chick Lit Month Hall of Fame this year.

Jane is here today because the third and final novel from her Brennan Sisters series, The Good Wife (reviewed here), was published last week. Oh, yeah...and she's going to tell us the top five things that make her happy, in honor of "Happiness Month" here at CLC. Thanks to BookSparks PR, we have one copy of The Good Wife for a lucky US reader! If you haven't read The Good Woman and The Good Daughter, you'll definitely want to check those out, as well!

What's next for Jane? She's part of the Copper Mountain Rodeo series from Montana Born Books (Tule Publishing), along with another chick lit author we adore...Megan Crane! Her novella, Take Me, Cowboy will be released in late October.

You can find Jane at her website, Facebook and Twitter.

Top Five Happy Things for Jane Porter:

1 – My boys. I love my boys and would be lost without them. (And I could include my husband as one of my boys!)

2 – Books. I'm a reader before anything else. Couldn't live without a stack of books next to my bed, waiting to be read.

3 – My writing. I’m a storyteller. I hear voices...characters talking, wanting to be brought to life. I couldn't imagine not writing.

4 – Peeps. I have a real weakness for them. I could eat them by the boxful.

5 – Travel. I love to get in the car or on a plane and just go somewhere---anywhere. A little motel in a beach town. A posh hotel in the desert. International. An hour away. Just love to go. Travel is my poison. I live to travel.

Special thanks to Jane for making US smile and to BookSparks PR for sharing The Good Wife with our readers.


Synopsis of The Good Wife:

Is it possible to love someone too much?

Always considered the beauty of the family, the youngest Brennan sister, Sarah, remains deeply in love with her husband of ten years. Boone Walker, a professional baseball player, travels almost year-round while Sarah stays home and cares for their two children. Her love for her husband is bottomless—so much so that her sisters say it will end up hurting her.

Living apart most of the time makes life difficult, especially since Sarah often wonders whether Boone is sharing his bed with other women on the road, even though he swears he’s been true to her since his infidelity three years ago. While she wants to be happy and move forward in her life, Sarah constantly fears that Boone will break his promise. Now with Boone facing yet another career change, tension rises between the two, adding more stress to an already turbulent marriage. Emotionally exhausted, Sarah can’t cope with yet another storm. Now, she must either break free from the past and forgive Boone completely, or leave him behind and start anew... (Synopsis courtesy of Goodreads.)
