I've always said a romance hero can be deeply flawed... as long as he's willing to rush into a burning building to rescue a basket of kittens.

I had a wonderful and very successful career in New York and had the privilege of working with some of the best editors and publishers in the business.

Even the geekiest of guys could get the girl if he read every romance novel that came out in any given month.

It's true that romance novels do detail the courtship phase of a relationship. We usually write 'And they lived happily ever after' before our heroine starts snoring or our hero starts tossing his socks over the hamper.

Every marriage is a mystery to me, even the one I'm in. So I'm no expert on it.

My mom said, 'Don't get married. You're too young. Go out there and experience what life has to offer.' And I did.

I've definitely, you know, been with women. And I've had great relationships with them where I was definitely in love. It's just I grew to a point where deep inside I knew that I could never truly have a relationship with a woman. I don't know if they ever suspected. It was never brought up.

What does it mean to love someone with all your heart? It means to love with all your emotional feelings and with all your devotion. Surely when you love your wife with all your heart, you cannot demean her, criticize her, find fault with her, or abuse her by words, sullen behavior, or actions.
