I’m writing a sort of reverse Pretty Woman story. The title of my book is Evan’s Wish. I’ve thought about writing a book with a wealthy heroine. I know the wealthy hero is popular in romance, but how often do you read about a wealthy heroine?
My heroine, Brooke, is wealthy from selling expensive homes: Multi-million dollar homes with several bedrooms, dream kitchens, and manicured landscaping. Homes with fantastic lake and mountain views. Estates with carriage houses and horse stables.
My books are set in made-up cities and towns in Vermont. There are some fantastic homes overlooking beautiful scenery in Vermont. If you’ve never been to Vermont, it really is that picturesque, especially in the fall. I’ve driven by homes like this and wondered about the people that live in them. Some of the homes are new, but many are hundreds of years old, with extensive renovations to add top-notch features.
I had the setting, and the heroine. Then I had to decide what to do about my hero. I did consider making him a prostitute, like in Pretty Woman. But my author brand is handyman heroes; men who work with their hands. I write about painters, landscapers, and carpenters. I decided to make my hero, Evan, a maintenance man. He mops floors, changes light bulbs, and performs assorted handyman tasks in a high-end condo complex.
Evan couldn’t afford to live in one of these high-end condos. He watches the wealthy residents as they scurry by, never greeting him, except for Brooke. He’s attracted to the pretty resident who smiles at him, and when they officially meet, Brooke asks him to attend an event with her.
My book is also a fish out of water story, because Evan is a simple guy not used to dressing up or going to fancy parties. Brooke likes Evan, and offers to pay him to attend more events with her. Evan does a little digging to find out why she’d pay a man to escort her to events. And you’ll have to read the book to see why Evan needs the money.
I’m very interested in how money affects a romantic relationship. We have a woman who’s wealthy, and she’s with a man who drives an old truck and lives in a simple apartment with a roommate. Does it cause problems? Sure! Does it make for some hilarity, too? You bet! I’ll borrow a few scenes from Pretty Woman, but I’ll put my own twist on them.
When I attend writing classes, I often hear writing teachers say “Put your own twist on a trope.” The romance books I like the best offer a twist or a fresh way of looking at a common trope. In addition to the wealthy heroine/blue collar hero dynamic, I enjoy fish out of water stories as well. It’s amusing to watch someone thrust into a lifestyle they aren’t used to, and see them navigate and try to look natural.
I’m looking forward to sharing Evan’s Wish in this fantastic collection.
