The manuscript, ''On the Way to Heaven'', sold the following and was published in 1995. This paranormal romance was very popular, and within six months her publisher had released the sequel, ''Shades of Heaven.''〔 she has published 17 novels, in the contemporary romance, paranormal romance, and suspense genres.〔 Her 2007 novel ''Until the Day You Die'' is not considered a romance novel but is instead a psychological suspense novel. Her in-depth research allows her to create "a strong sense of place," which she pairs with "intriguing characters." Wainscott has been nominated three times for ''Romantic Times'' Reviewers' Choice Awards, winning in 2000 for ''The Wrong Mr. Right.'' She has also been nominated for the ''Romantic Times'' Career Achievement Award.〔 〕 Many of her novels are set in and around Naples,〔 where Wainscott still lives with her husband, Dave Wainscott, a local architect.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tina Wainscott」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
