The Joys of Researching Romantic Suspense
I’m still in production mode, getting words on the page for Mission: Impossible to Forget which releases April 1. The research has been a delight, I must say.
I’m a huge fan of music and the performing arts so learning about professional musicians has been fascinating. I discovered 2CELLOs, a duo of young Croatian cellists Luka Sulic and Stjepan Hauser.
They are so talented and very attractive (a must for romance authors and readers!). You can enjoy a performance by 2CELLOS on YouTube.
Coming April 1, 2020

Professional cellist Emily Hewitt loves nothing more than creating music. Sharing her musical gift with the world is all she lives for. Until her life is threatened. Caught up in a treacherous conspiracy, Emily becomes the pawn in an international play for power and must be assigned a bodyguard.
Former Special-Ops Marine Nick Jenkins, is out of a job and out of patience. Discharged from the Corp because of hearing loss, the last thing he wants to do is babysit someone who’s surrounded by the haunting sounds of music he can no longer appreciate.
5 Reasons Books are the Best Valentine's Day Gifts
It’s Valentine’s Day, and while many people celebrate by giving gifts of candy, flowers or jewelry, I think the books make the best gifts. Here are 5 reasons why books are the ultimate expression of love.
1. No calories so you can enjoy them guilt-free.
2. Books are actually the gift of time ~ time to escape reality, time for yourself, time to indulge.
3. The heroes in romance novels never disappoint.
4. There is something for everyone ~ comedy, suspense, history, small town, cowboys, military heroes and more.
5. No one will judge you if you buy yourself books for Valentine’s Day.
Wishing you a day filled with love and books!

So Tasty ~ Excerpt from 'An Inner Fire'
Grayce stood in the doorway wearing his shirt. Mitzi stood behind her. A surge of possessiveness hit him in the gut. He wanted Grayce Walters to belong to him and only him.
“How long have I been asleep?” She stretched her arms over her head. He watched his shirt hike up to reveal her thighs, high enough to tantalize, high enough to cause heat to pool under his clothes, under his skin.
“Three hours.”
“Wow, I was really out. I had no idea I was so tired.”
“My fault. I didn’t plan on a workout when I invited you for dinner.”
A patch of red appeared on each cheek. A woman who blushed, a woman with no artifice.
How had he gotten so lucky?
“Are you working?”
“I was.” He stood. He wanted to go back to bed and do all the things they had done to each other and more. Desire drummed through him in a slow, steady beat. With her hair sleep-tousled around her shoulders, she looked like the cover of Maxim, like every hot-blooded male’s fantasy.
He pulled her into his arms. She smelled of lemon and warm, sleepy woman.
“Are you hungry?”
“I am, but you keep working. I’ll fix something.”
“I’m hungry too.” He leaned down, taking bites of her earlobe, nipping at her neck. “So tasty.”
