A Hoboken Hipster in Sherwood Forest
by Marianne Mancusi

If Chrissie Hayward knew that morning she'd be going back in time to rescue her crazy coworker Kat, she'd have worn better shoes. Doubly so if she'd expected to meet her true love. According to the mysterious gypsy, Chrissie was the "gentle soul who would tame an outlaw's thirst for revenge" — aka the real Robin Hood. So how come the guy was such a dud?

LOST...IN SHERWOOD FOREST?

No, Robin of Locksley was no Prince Charming. And the part about robbing the rich to feed the poor? He didn't get the memo. In fact, all the guy seemed to do was mope. (And he and his not-so-merry men thought Chrissie was a boy. Sure, she wasn't stacked, but still!) Nonetheless, he was loyal and brave and handsome as sin. If Chrissie coudl just get him with the program, she could right his wagon and get these boyz'n the wood to be heroes of the realm instead of twerps in tights. Only then could this prince of thieves become king of her heart.



Marianne Mancusi's Bio

Marianne Mancusi loved writing and blending genres from an early age, but against her high school English teacher's advice, she went to college for television and film. She ended up getting a job at Channel 7 News in Boston, where she is now a producer, but she couldn't shake the writing bug! In the summer of 2003, Marianne wrote A Connecticut Fashionista in King Arthur's Court a novel that combined her chick lit voice with her love for the King Arthur legend. Fashionista sold to Dorchester in 2004, and Marianne has since sold two more Chick Lit novels to Dorchester, plus four YA books to Dorchester Smooch and Berkley Jam. If writing and tv producing weren't enough to keep Marianne busy, she also enjoys snowboarding, bar hopping, shopping, traveling, and (her favorite guilty pleasure) video games.
