The Latest Ads For Fake Play & Jake
Let’s Talk Blurbs
Lately, I've been thinking about blurbs. You know, the kind on the back of books (or on bookseller sites) and the kind needed for BookBub and ads that don't want it to be so wordy. It's important to draw a reader's attention. I can't say I'm great at them, but heck, I see some pretty [...]
Two Chapters of JAKE
Since people appeared to enjoy reading the beginning of my latest hockey romance, I thought maybe you would be interested in the first two chapters from JAKE: A Southern Crime Family Novel. Be aware, like all of my romantic suspense novels, it has profanity and some gritty attitudes. That's just how I roll. First, [...]

Hope you enjoy.Blurb: Connor Ellison, one of Atlanta Edge’s best wingers and biggest prankster, is given an ultimatum by the coaches and the PR department. He must stay married until the [...]
Wholly Research, I Swear
Well, like most everyone, for the last couple months I've been reading books and watching a lot of TV. I've been working the life draining day-job during my usual hours. But since there is no travel time, except a short stroll down the hallway, I've found myself with a little more time to goof off. [...]
The Circle Series
I recently updated the cover of my Facebook page for the Circle series. Love the little show of, well, you know. And be on the lookout this summer for a special deal on the series, along with the two novellas. Yes, five books. Lastly, the two novellas have a new cover that will show up online [...]

Series Reviews
In the last few months, I’ve been listening to two series: Historical romance Survivors' Club series by Mary Balogh, and paranormal romance Deep In Your Veins Series by Suzanne Wright. What a wide spectrum of genres, heh? I came across Suzanne’s books while looking for a new shape-shifter story. I do love those. One of [...]
Interviewing Myself
In the past, whenever I interviewed an author, I used seven questions. It dawned on me today, I may have never answered them myself. Here they are. Who are your top five authors to read? Funny that if I had answered this just three years ago, it would've been a bit different. But I guess [...]

A Little Something
The other day, one of my writer friends was setting up a press release for our book signing at Barnes and Noble (The Summit) in Birmingham, Alabama on February 8 from 1 to 3 p.m. And she asked a couple questions you might be interested in seeing the answer. As a local author, what about [...]
Pile It on
You know what I like about romance books? Of course, the hot sex, but truthfully, the layers my favorite authors weave into their stories. For romances, there should be two main plots in the book. One, of course is the mystery of romance. You know, the mystery of how they come to understand they should be [...]
So Minor, But Important
I was watching an interview with Mike Fisher, a retired NHL Nashville Predator and hubby of Carrie Underwood. In being teased about NHL roommates on the road, he mentioned they no longer have to share a room (per the CBA). So many hockey romances I've read mention roommates. The junior leagues probably still do and [...]
The Old Days
I came across a screen shot of my very first website. Yep. I designed it myself with SiteSpinner. A cool little software program that helps those unfamiliar with coding. It was WYSIWYG type and I used it for years. If you can read some of the small print, you will see I was a romantic [...]
