Lisa Kleypas has 1 past event. (show) LISA KLEYPAS, BLUE-EYED DEVIL Lisa Kleypas , Blue-Eyed Devil. From the New York Times bestselling author of Sugar Daddy comes another blockbuster contemporary romance about a Texas heiress at the crossroads of her heart and her dreams. Scenes of domestic abuse and the journey to recovery make Kleypas's modern romance anything but fluff. A Wellesley grad and daughter of a Houston energy baron, Haven Travis is an unlikely romantic heroine until her brief but ardent encounter with a man who turns out to be Hardy Cates, the East Texas roughneck from Sugar Daddy, a self-made millionaire who comes from the wrong side of the tracks. Lisa Kleypas published her first book at the age of 21 and was also a contestant in the Miss America competition as Miss Massachusetts. Her novels have been published in 14 languages and are bestsellers all over the world. She lives in Bellingham. (booksense)… (more)
