It's finally here! She'll Steal Your Heart is officially out in the world today. You may know this book has been a long time coming, and I'm so thrilled that it's finally here. This is the 4th book in the Midnight in Manhattan series, and if you've read Don't Cry for Me, you've already met my heroine Lauren. You probably didn't like her much in that book, but it's time for Lauren's redemption!

This is an age gap, online friends to lovers romance set in a cat cafe. It's also my first solo indie release in more than a year and a half. My indie books are extra special to me, and this one is even more so since I've been working on it for so long (you'll find the full story about that in the acknowledgements.) I really love Lauren and Mia so much, and I hope you will too!

A thief seeking redemption forms an unlikely connection with a former lawyer looking for a fresh start of her own, but what starts as friendship soon feels like much more…
 
Last year, Lauren Booker fled New York with a warrant out for her arrest. Now she’s back and ready to make amends for her crime. She wants to rebuild her life, and Brooklyn is home. There’s not much waiting for her here now, though, nothing except an online friend who’s brought her so much joy during one of the hardest years of her life. When they finally meet in person, Lauren’s unprepared for her attraction to Mia, but she’s even less prepared to discover that Mia has an unexpected connection to her crime, putting Lauren’s plans in jeopardy.
 
Mia Solano has also had a difficult year. Recently divorced, she walked away from her legal career after a health scare caused her to reexamine her priorities. Now Mia owns a cat café, and she’s struggling to adjust to a slower pace of life. She finds an unlikely friend in Lauren, but Lauren’s legal troubles force Mia to revisit a part of her life she’s trying to leave behind. She can’t explain why she’s so drawn to Lauren. They shouldn’t have much in common, and yet, they just seem to click.
 
As the connection between them strengthens, Lauren and Mia wrestle with growing feelings, but neither wants to risk their friendship by crossing that line. With Lauren’s court date looming ever closer, they might lose everything, including each other.

Cover reveals are one of my very favorite things to share, and this one has been a long time coming! I've been waiting to redeem Lauren since I first drafted Don't Cry for Me back in 2019, and now, her time is finally here.

She'll Steal Your Heart will be out October 25th! It's the 4th book in the Midnight in Manhattan series (but like all my books, it can be read as a standalone.) It's an age gap, online friends to lovers book set in a cat cafe, and I happen to think this is the sexiest cover in the series (I can't quit staring at it!)

💜 Opposites attract
💜 Thawing ice queen
💜 Forced proximity
💜 Sizzling slow burn
💜 Rescue kittens!

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.

Hi everyone! I hope you're doing well. Do you need an escape from reality? (because let's face it, 2021 is not off to the best start, is it?) Well, I have just the thing. My newest book, Come Away with Me, is out today! I wrote this book as my own form of pandemic escapism. It's a low angst romance about two women who both need a bit of an escape themselves...

A television star and a flight attendant walk into a bar...

Six months after a traumatic event left actress Piper Sheridan confined to her apartment with debilitating panic attacks, she’s determined to start living her life again. Motivated by an upcoming audition, she summons her courage and goes out for a drink, keeping her identity under wraps. It sounds simple enough, but nothing about going out in public is easy for Piper these days. And her hopes of going unnoticed are stymied by the bubbly blonde on the next barstool.

Flight attendant Chloe Carson is only in New York for the night, and she’s only looking for a little casual fun to go with her cocktail. The mysterious woman beside her isn’t fun, exactly…but she’s intriguing. And beautiful. Even without knowing her name, Chloe is drawn to her. When they share an unexpectedly intimate moment, Chloe knows this is a night she’ll never forget.

Can these two strangers turn a chance encounter into something lasting?
​

​This is the third book in the Midnight in Manhattan series, but it can 100% be read as a standalone. I really fell in love with Piper and Chloe as I was writing their story, and I hope you do too.

It's release day for It's in Her Kiss, the second book in my Midnight in Manhattan series. This is a f/f rivals-to-lovers story set in the exciting world of Broadway, and it's available in Kindle Unlimited. Buy your copy now!

Two Broadway actresses, one starring role, and a kiss that might turn rivals…into lovers.

Sophie Rindell has dreamed of performing on Broadway since she was a little girl. But after more than ten years of auditioning, she’s still waiting tables and sleeping on a friend’s couch while she waits for her big break. When she lands an audition for a new musical called It’s in Her Kiss, she’s sure this is the one. Not only is she auditioning for the lead, but it’s a queer role, the role of a lifetime for Sophie.

Julia Vega has been working on Broadway for years now, but she hasn’t landed a starring role…yet. When she meets Sophie at the audition for It’s in Her Kiss, she senses a kindred spirit. They’re both talented and driven, but unlike Sophie, who’s been out since high school, Jules is still coming to terms with her sexuality. This role—if she lands it—could help define more than her career.

As their rivalry heats up, Jules and Sophie fight an attraction that blazes hotter than the spotlight. When the curtain rises on opening night, love might take center stage.
