  • 5 More Days!!!

    It’s only 5 days until the release of THE TROUBLE WITH GOODBYE, my first New Adult contemporary romance novel!! I have never been so excited or nervous about a book release in my life. This book is very different from anything I’ve ever written before. No magic. No spells or witches or demons (which I do love!). Just real life. Real love. Real struggle.

Myrtle Beach, SC here I come!!!! Here WE come, actually. I’ll be heading there on Saturday with my little family of three. We have a two bedroom oceanfront condo, and I can’t wait! The weather is supposed to be gorgeous, warm and sunny. Exactly what I need right now, let me tell you. But this isn’t a vacation in the typical sense….

    Thank you so much to everyone who entered my contest this week and gave me suggestions or voted for your favorite new name for the hero of my upcoming New Adult contemporary romance, The Trouble With Goodbye.
