Do you ever wonder why an author writes the story they do?

Today I'm taking you behind the scenes of my story Imperfect Justice. In many ways, this is a very personal story for me. I had worked with domestic violence clients and walked friends through situations. Then I saw articles that put a spin on the story. Twist it up and I had so many layers coming together in my mind for this novel. It's an important one because it's an issue the church doesn't know how to handle. And it's real life. I also wanted to handle it well while remembering this is fiction and meant to entertain. So you've got a great hero, one of my favorite heroines, and a child. This is about the time I realized this series was going to be about different aspects of protecting children. It took me longer than it probably should have to recognize that thread!
