This book was born from too much imagination, quite a few plot twists, and just the right amount of chaos - fitting, considering the title. It began with a wild idea: a practical-romantic fusion featuring Melicia, the bold survivor of a man's world; Keith, the introverted gentleman who still believes in loyalty, sincerity, and quiet love; and Ryan - the chaos in Keith's life, the friend who brings headaches but stands firm when it truly matters. Keith found love, but she wasn't what he expected. In fact, she was more than he could handle. Out of his league, unpredictable, dangerous in all the wrong and right ways - yet she liked him for exactly who he was. A simple man with a simple lifestyle, content with routine, honest intentions, and a quiet heart. Melicia, a con artist who married wealthy men, took their money, and moved on to the next target, shattered Keith's peaceful life with cinematic mayhem - car chases, dangerous men, stolen heirlooms, schemes, cons, hiding, running, and every twist you'd expect in an action movie. Keith's world flipped the moment she walked into it. He and Ryan were swept into the madness, but Keith stood by her through every mess, and Ryan - being the loyal idiot he is - stood by Keith. They might be idiots in the real world, but together, they survived. Together, they followed Melicia into danger and somehow crawled out alive, proving that even fools can be heroes with the right woman leading the way. To my friends and family - your patience deserves a medal. And to the readers: thank you for picking up A Lady, A Kiss, and Two Idiots. These characters are chaotic. They're flawed. They make terrible decisions. But they love fiercely - and so did I while shaping them into the versions you meet in this book. This story exists because you're here, willing to go along for the ride.
