It’s Out!

Finally…my first new release since 2017. It’s been a busy five years, full of kids, moving (twice!), Covid (I’m sure everyone relates!), and some family stuff. But I’m writing again and that feels…well, it feels fantastic, honestly. 🙂

I’m proud of The Duke’s Rules of Engagement. Inside, you’ll find … read more ↦

Improbable (Impossible?) Relationships in Historical Romance

Tomorrow is Release Day!

Well, I’m back from the RWA conference. It was inspiring and exhausting…and just so amazing to be surrounded by all that talent. It’s time to get back to work! I’ll be starting a new book in the next few days…an exciting time, but I realize I have tons of hard … read more ↦

Off to Conference!

Hi everyone. I’m off to the Romance Writers of American yearly national conference. For us writers, it’s a great time to come out of our caves and meet with other like-minded souls who write romance as well as with our editors and agents. It’s fun, wild, exhausting…I’m guessing I’ll be … read more ↦

Being a mom and a writer on deadline can be a crazy life sometimes. Especially when it’s the end of the school year and I have a book due on June 1! I feel like all I do is scramble from one thing to the next, like my life is … read more ↦
