This week our Feature on Author is on: Amy Ruttan and her new book, Baby Bombshell for the Doctor Prince. 

Born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, Amy fled the big city to settle down with the country boy of her dreams. When she's not furiously typing away at her computer, she's a mom to three children.

What was something you loved doing in recent times?

I love to crochet. I love Strong by Zumba (now called Strong Nation) and I've been sewing, which I find quite relaxing.

What are the most important magazines for writers to subscribe to?

I don't subscribe to any magazines. Maybe when I was first published I would suggest Romantic Times, but they're no longer in publication. Writer's Digest is a good place to start, but I don't read a lot of magazines. I have a digital subscription to Publisher's Marketplace, but they also have a free version called Publisher's Lunch. Again, it's not imperative to have a subscription to any of these. The best thing to do when targeting a publisher is 1. read their submission guidelines 2. follow those guidelines 3. And read their newest titles.

What’s your favorite under-appreciated novel?

I don't know if it's under-appreciated, but I love Lost in the Barrens by Farley Mowatt. We read it in school, everyone else in my class hated it. I LOVED it, but I'm drawn to north because of my ancestry. I also think that Underground to Canada by Barbara Smucker doesn't get enough mention. Everyone should read that book. I like to read a lot of books, I couldn't pick my most favourite and to me, the books I read are very much appreciated so I wouldn't know what book would be under-appreciated. 

Tell us about your book...

My book is my 25th with Harlequin medicals. The hero is a prince in hiding, a spare to the heir, while his country revolts. He has a one night stand with my heroine and when he's forced to leave and go into hiding, he doesn't expect to see her again. He's placed in Yellowknife and is working for my heroine. He discovers she's pregnant with his heir and she discovers he's a prince. She agrees to marry him to protect their baby, but love quickly develops in close quarters.
