JOIN MY ROMANCE NEWSLETTER LIST!

03/06/14

We all want to believe in love-true-love. The kind that transforms your life and makes things better in the darkest hours. Not only do I believe in love, I get a great kick out of writing about it. I read romance; watch movies and television shows that have a romance and love to write the ones in my head…even after already writing twenty-one romances. I just finished a new one and will be talking about it soon!

The variety of romantic stories is wide and all readers have their preferences.

No matter which romance genres you gravitate toward, there are certain things readers want in their books. I’d love to hear what warms your heart. Impossible couplings? Great sex? Average-looking characters or heroes and heroines peeled from a magazine ad?

I’ll address these topics in my upcoming newsletters, including new releases, giveaways and contests!

If he’s done something bad, he deeply regrets it and cannot forgive himself. Although he may not be model-gorgeous, he’s fit and he has all his teeth. Heroes frequently are gorgeous, even though… Continue Reading

INSPIRING ROMANCE

12/27/13

Romance authors are often asked where we get our ideas…and some people even leer and offer to help with our research, if you know what I mean. No good answer for that one, but when a writer pens stories of love, it seems to lay us open for this sort of innuendo. But writing relationships… Continue Reading
