1. Deeper was originally called Second Verse. I really liked that title. Deeper is good, too.
2. Deeper takes place at Bethany Beach, DE, where I vacation every summer. I had my first “real” kiss at Bethany Beach. It was a long time ago. I believe our teeth clashed. His name was really just two initials. I wish I could remember his last name.
3. Nick Hamilton is described as looking like Robert Downey Jr. in Less Than Zero. I’m not sure I’ve ever described a character using such specifics before. And it’s strange, I don’t “see” Nick as RDJ. Yet that’s how Bess saw him, so that’s what she thought.
4. Between writing the book and its publication, the town of Bethany Beach underwent a pretty major transformation of its beach. I tried to make sure the final edits mentioned it, but…thus are the perils of writing about real places!
5. I think the cover art for DEEPER is probably my favorite of all my covers. It’s mesmerizing, actually. The colors. It’s beautiful. I know it’s sorta d-baggy to say so about something of my own, but hey, I didn’t MAKE the cover.

by Savannah Chase June 17th, 2009 at 1:05 pmHi Megan,
Just want you to know that I was doing the happy dance & giggling all the way from the mailbox to my front door when I picked up my mail.
I couldn’t wait to open up my package, because I received one from Megan Hart today
And not only did it contain a copy of Deeper, but also the CD by Jason Manns…..I won the Megan Hart lottery!!!!!!
Seriously, you totally made my day today, and I am going to drop the book I was reading to start on Deeper as soon as I get the chance:) I am so excited, woo hoo!!
by Booklover1335 June 18th, 2009 at 12:22 pmI, too, did the happy dance when I discovered a copy of Deeper and the CD in my mail today.
I can hardly wait to begin reading! Thanks, thanks, thanks!!
by Stacey M. June 19th, 2009 at 7:08 pmMegan,
I just finished Deeper. It is such a beautiful, heartrending story of love, life and the complex outcomes of decisions and missed opportunities.
I loved it! Thank you for writing the books you do!
by Stacey M. June 20th, 2009 at 1:53 amMegan – do you plan to have Deeper available for Kindle? I know much of your content is available, but Taking Care of Business still isn’t. I’d love it if it were all available. Please? Pretty please?!
by Barb June 20th, 2009 at 1:38 pmMegan please let me have a book! I would like to be a new reader of romance novels. I agree with you the cover is beautiful, thats what made me pick it up at B&N. I only read the first chapter of Bess and Nick’s story at the bookstore!!
