Don't Cry for Me, the first book in my new Midnight in Manhattan series, will be out on April 21st, and I am so excited to finally be able to share it with you! This is a f/f contemporary romance with an opposites attract trope, the slowest slow burn I've ever written, and rescue kittens!  I've been working on this one for a while (and am about halfway through writing the second book in the series, which will take us to Broadway! 🤩) I really love it, and I hope you will too. I'll be talking a lot more about this book and series over the next few months, but for now, enjoy the blurb below, and please let me know what you think!
A frosty television host, a bubbly bar owner, and a litter of abandoned kittens. The recipe for ratings gold…or heartbreak? Eve Marlow has her eyes on the prize: a third season of her popular business makeover show, Do Over. But when her ratings take an unexpected dive, Eve needs a blockbuster new client, or she can kiss season three goodbye. She has her work cut out for her, and that’s before she discovers a litter of newborn kittens in a trash can. Now she’s desperate to find someone to take them so she can concentrate on reviving her career. Josie Swanson had to put her kitten rescue on the back burner when she inherited her father’s bar two years ago. Since then, she’s invested all her time and energy into keeping it afloat, but despite her best efforts, Swanson’s is going under. When she gets a phone call from Eve Marlow, host of the television show Josie applied to earlier that year, the woman she’s convinced can save her bar, Josie hopes her luck has finally turned. Eve knows what she needs to succeed, and it isn’t Josie—or her bar. There’s no denying the chemistry sizzling between them, though. Josie’s personality is as vibrant as her turquoise-tipped hair. She stirs things in Eve that haven’t been stirred in a long time, but there’s a reason she keeps her heart under lock and key. Eve stands to lose a lot more than her TV show if she lets her guard down, no matter how tempted she is to see if Josie’s love would be worth the risk.

It's release day for the third book in my Almost Royal series, Let Your Hair Down, and I'm so excited for you to read Ruby's story. Our favorite geek girl has left the castle, she's let her hair down, and she's ready for the adventure of a lifetime! Yes, this is a Rapunzel-inspired story with a fun romp across Europe (and a British hero!) Amazon | Barnes & Noble | iBooks | Kobo | Google Play  Not quite ready to buy? You can read the first chapter here on my website! :)
THE ADVENTURE OF A LIFETIME Ruby Keller is going rogue, or at least that’s the hashtag she’s using to document her vacation: #RubyGoesRogue. Illness kept her confined to her bedroom for much of her childhood, and as a result, she’s always played it safe, hiding behind her laptop and overanalyzing every decision. When a friend’s wedding takes her to London, she decides to push herself out of her comfort zone and take an uncharted adventure on her own...no laptop, no itinerary, and no one to get in her way. A chance run-in with a handsome British stranger was definitely not on the agenda… Flynn Bowen travels the globe for his family’s chain of upscale hotels and resorts. He’s struggled to find his place within the business, so when his parents allow him to oversee the construction of a new location in Dubai, he’s determined not to let them down. When he meets Ruby, he’s enchanted by her passion and bravery, not to mention the chemistry between them. If circumstances were different, he could fall for this vivacious American beauty, but fate has only given them one magical day together. Can they find a way to grab their chance at love, or will geography—and their own inhibitions—tear them apart?

This is a gender-swapped Beauty and the Beast story with a virgin widower hero, a scarred heroine, and rescue horses. I'm so excited for you to read Megan and Jake's story! BUY IT NOW: Amazon | B&N | iBooks | Kobo | GP  A TALE AS OLD AS TIME
Megan Perl went from beauty to beast when a car accident left her permanently scarred. Before, Megan was outgoing and vivacious, always with a man at her side. Now? She spends more time behind a camera than in front of it. She’s ready to turn her hobby into something more by offering photography sessions at the castle where she works. This year is dedicated to her career, not men. If only she wasn’t so crazy-attracted to the cowboy who’s renting the stable on the castle grounds… Jake Reardon is no stranger to tragedy. After a fall left his bride in a coma on their wedding day, he was forced to watch her slowly fade away in a hospital bed. Now, he finds himself in the unwelcome position of virgin widower. At Rosemont Castle, he can finally focus on establishing his career as a horse trainer. The only problem is that his new landlady makes him hotter than the Virginia sun. Sparks fly every time Jake and Megan cross paths, but there’s no way he’s going to lose his virginity with the woman who manages the property he’s leasing. As their attraction grows, though, so do their emotions. Jake carries his scars inside, but Megan has to wear hers for the world to see. Can love heal their wounds, or will it tear them apart?

SOMETIMES LOVE HAS TO BE LOST BEFORE IT CAN BE FOUND… Nicole Morella boards a private Mediterranean cruise with one goal: to reclaim herself after her divorce. When she sits next to a beautiful blonde in the ship’s lounge, she’s knocked off balance by the immediate attraction between them, and it’s not just because Nicole hasn’t found her sea legs yet. Fiona stirs things in Nicole that haven’t been stirred in a long time, but a fiery kiss turns dangerous when the ship is hijacked. The women launch a daring escape, leaving them adrift in an empty lifeboat. Fiona Boone has been adrift most of her life, but never in such a literal sense. She’s a survivor, though, so when they land on a deserted island, Fiona’s ready to do whatever it takes to stay alive until they’re rescued. In the meantime, she can’t get enough of the feisty woman she’s stranded with, despite her usual fiercely independent nature. Although they’re lost, Fiona finds something unexpected in the comfort of Nicole’s touch. But when an injury puts her life in jeopardy, they begin to worry help won’t arrive in time. If she survives their ordeal, Fiona might just face her biggest challenge yet: falling in love.  It's time to reveal the cover for my next book, Lost in Paradise, which comes out on February 12th. You may know my love of stranded books, so I was thrilled to write a book where my two heroines find themselves trapped on a deserted island together. Yes, this is also my first LGBT book, and I can't wait to introduce you to Fiona and Nicole. Their romance is a particularly emotional one, and I'm so excited for you to read it! <3 Stop by my Facebook page and enter my giveaway for a $25 Amazon gift card to celebrate Lost in Paradise's cover reveal!

BUY IT NOW: Amazon | Barnes & Noble | iBooks | Kobo | Google Play SOMETIMES THE BEST GIFTS CAN’T BE WRAPPED All Mandy Carson wants for Christmas is a distraction…and maybe a date to her friend’s New Year’s Eve wedding. Ghosts from the past always loom larger this time of year, and Mandy’s having a hard time faking her usual fun-loving demeanor. But when her much-needed distraction arrives in the form of the man who rocked her world the long-ago night of their junior prom, she’s forced to confront the painful scars that caused her to bolt back in high school. Wildlife rescuer Calvin Rocha always regretted letting Mandy slip out of his life, so when fate brings them together on a snowy mountain road with an injured hawk on Christmas Eve, he’s determined to make the most of this second chance. He agrees to be her wedding date, hoping the romantic weekend will bring them back together. And as the clock counts down to midnight, Cal and Mandy might just discover that the best gift they’ll receive this season is each other.  Did you know that you can read fun, free text message stories on the Hooked channel inside the Snapchat app? Well, you can! They upload a new story every day, and several of them are mine! Oh, and I mentioned that they're free, right? ;) One of my stories went up on Monday (10/8). It's called Snake It Off, and it's a funny one (also romantic...) Just search "Hooked" inside the Snapchat app, and scroll over to the story from Monday with the caption "Don't Read This If You're Afraid of SNAKES" (but actually DO read it if you're afraid of snakes lol, because so is my heroine!) ;) Enjoy!
