This month marks my one year publishing anniversary! I can't believe how quickly I've reached this milestone. It's been a whirlwind of a year and I couldn't have done it without YOU! So, I'll be rewarding you with giveaways (details below).


I never could've predicted the success I've seen this year when I'd held my breath as I'd hit publish on Burning for More a year ago. That had been one of the most terrifying/exciting moments I've ever had. I'd sent a piece of my soul out into the world, hoping for the best, but secretly expecting the worst. Thank you for loving Dylan and Autumn. Thank you for wanting more from me. Thank you for pushing me to work harder, to hone my craft, and to embrace my greatest passion.


Are you new to me?

Check out my Burning for the Bravest Series, which features New York City firefighters who love hard and make love harder. Get started with Burning for More (Book 1) for free on Kindle Unlimited or get it on Amazon for only 99¢.

 My 9th novel, Flirting with the Finest, the debut for my second series, will be released August 17th!

I went up to New York and Connecticut for a writing retreat and to visit family. While there, I finalized Flirting with Fame . My rescue mutt, Zeus, road tripped it with me and he got to see snow for the first time. He was super apprehensive at first, but then he got the zoomies in full force. One of the highlights was getting to spend time with my best friend, who I hadn't seen in far too long.

When I first started writing romance, I was intimidated by the idea of penning steamy sex scenes. I *almost* decided to be a fade-to-black author 😲 but I knew that the stories I wanted to write needed sex. Despite being terrified by the idea, I put my fingers to the keyboard and pushed myself to get the words out. Best. Decision. Ever. Here's why: I was raised in a conservative family. The only "sex talk" I got from my mother happened when I started dating my first boyfriend. All she said was, "Don't kiss him with your mouth open." Yeah...it was too late for that because he'd already kissed me. And my mouth was open. And I hadn't been struck down on the spot because of it... So, how did that translate as I got older? I was ashamed of my sexual side. That isn't to say that I wasn't sexually active, but I never talked about it with anyone. Sometimes, that even included my partner; I wouldn't communicate what I liked/disliked/wanted to try/etc... Not exactly healthy. I'd been labeled as a "little bit of a prude" by more than one person, which I knew was not who I authentically was (I am a Scorpio after all 😉), but the shame had kept me from arguing.
