Where In The World Am I?

I’ve been mostly off social media this week because I’ve been working hard on Silent Evidence during my writing retreat! I’ve read all your comments and hope to reply when I’m settled back in at home. I hope everyone has had a great week!

The Toni Anderson Giveaway

This week I gave away a print copy of Toni Anderson-Author Page‘s COLD BLOODED. The lucky winner was notified today. This book is close to my heart because not only is it dedicated to me, my book FIRESTORM makes a cameo appearance. Toni writes gripping, sexy, fast-paced romantic suspense that will keep you up until three a.m.

Be sure to visit my Facebook page and enter the giveaways!

Conference and Retreat Time!

It’s conference time in Houston! We’re here at Romance Author Mastermind to learn all the things about the business of writing. #RAM2018 is the brainchild of author Skye Warren and I’m so excited to be attending!

Speaking of Skye Warren, she has a new release I’ll be reading on the plane!

THE EVOLUTION OF MAN! ????

“Pure writing gold filled with heartmelting swoons, angst and a lovestory of the ages.” – Bookgasms Book Blog

After the conference I’ll be on a writing retreat with Toni Anderson, Annika Martin, and Jenn Stark, where I will hopefully be closing in on writing the ending of SILENT EVIDENCE. I can’t wait!!

This Week’s Giveaway!

On Tuesday I posted a fun giveaway on my Facebook page! A few weeks ago my pal Kristina McMorris, Author was in my area for a book signing event along with T. Greenwood, Author. It was great to have a chance to catch up with Kristina and meet T, plus I picked up signed copies of their new releases you now have a chance to win!

Both books are historical fiction; SOLD ON A MONDAY by Kristina McMorris is fiction inspired by an historic photograph, and RUST & STARDUST by T. Greenwood was inspired by a real crime (that was in itself the inspiration for LOLITA).

The lucky winner was announced on Facebook.

Family Milestones

Last weekend I took my baby to college. She’s a ferry and a long car ride away. She’s our oldest so this was a huge milestone in our lives!

A FIRESTORM Snippet

Firestorm ???

She touched him in response, running her hands over his shoulders, down his arms, circling his waist to his back. “Your body is beautiful, Cal. A work of art.”

“It’s work. I don’t know about art.”
She laughed. “A masterpiece. I love watching you work out on base. You have this intense focus. It’s the only time you’d let me look at you, because you’re blind to everything but the task at hand.”

Her words hit him in the gut. She hadn’t intended them as a blow, but he felt it just the same. “I’m sorry. I put up barriers to you because you scare me.”

Her lips twitched. “I scare a badass Special Forces soldier?” Her mouth bloomed into a full smile. “I like the sound of that.”

He picked her up, the ache in his gut relaxing a fraction. “Oh, sweetheart, you’re the scariest woman I’ve ever met. The first moment I met you, I wanted to possess you.”

Congratulations to J. Kenner on her RITA win for WICKED DIRTY! Definitely a toast-worthy accompishment.

Sometimes bad isn’t good enough…

On the outside, Lyle Tarpin is a clean-cut Hollywood actor whose star is on the rise. Inside, he’s battling his own demons, shunning relationships and finding solace in the arms of a string of anonymous women paid very well for their discretion.

But when he’s photographed in a compromising position by an over-eager reporter, the only way to save his career is to say that the woman he was with is his fiancée. And now Lyle has to play a very public game with the only woman who’s ever managed to get under his skin.

Struggling waitress Sugar Laine agrees to spend one night with Lyle—but only because she’s desperate to save her family home. She never expects that a night of passion will turn into a pretend engagement … or that the heat between them will blossom into love.

But sometimes love has a price.

And now the only question is—can Lyle and Sugar afford to pay it?

FIRESTORM was featured on the Book Bench for Romance Lovers page
