As her billionaire boss, he had everything.
“I don’t have you.”

I’m extremely excited about this series, Dynasties: Secrets of the A-list, since it gave me the chance to collaborate with fellow Harlequin Desire authors Cat Schield, Reese Ryan, and Joss Wood. Be sure to check out Books 2-4 in the series: Cat Schield’s Taken by Storm is out June 1, Reese Ryan’s Seduced by Second Chances is out July 1, and Joss Wood’s Redeemed by Passion is out August 1.
Over four books, you will get drama, intrigue, and lots of sexy times. It’s a wild ride. I promise!
So what’s next for me? Books 2-4 of the Eden Empire series, that’s what! A Cinderella Seduction will be out July 1, A Bet with Benefits is out September 1, and the series wraps up on November 1 with A Christmas Rendezvous! All books are available for preorder now, so get to it!
Wishing, Book 5 in the Forever series, is out now! It’s a stand-alone novella, but if you read Bring Me Back and Back Forever, this is Samantha’s story, set 8 years later. You will want to read this story.
Here’s the blurb:
When Samantha Abby loses her magazine job and her musician boyfriend, she says goodbye to New York, her writing career, and guys with guitars. Back home, she discovers her parents have a houseguest—ridiculously-sexy-in-Chuck-Taylors rock star Duncan Hall. She doesn’t want to share her bathroom or her family with the exact kind of trouble that broke her heart. Plus, Duncan is brilliant. With her writing dream in a dumpster, spending time with a beautiful guy whose creativity earns countless accolades is just salt in the wound.
Duncan should be on top of the world, but after losing his best friend to drugs, success feels like a joke. Meanwhile, his parents express their continued disdain for his music and the film he made to cope. Samantha’s step-dad, Christopher Penman, is as close as Duncan gets to a father figure, and working with him on a new record is a dream-come-true. Duncan doesn’t want to lose out on this found family by getting romantic with Samantha, but she’s not only gorgeous and smart, she sees right through to his core. Duncan and Sam find themselves no longer wishing to disappear. But do they have the courage to let themselves be found?

Fire the glitter cannons! Secrets of a (Somewhat) Sunny Girl is out in the world! I do have some fun new tidbits to share about the book. NPR featured it in “3 Romances to Keep You on the Path to Happily Ever After”, saying, “This is not to be missed.” Also, Tantor Media has acquired the audiobook rights, with a release date of December 12. If you didn’t have a chance to preorder and would like to nab the book, you can find links to all retailers on the Sunny Girl page.
As for what’s next, well, believe it or not, Christmas is coming, as is A Christmas Temptation, which will be out November 1 in eBook and November 6 for mass market paperback. This is Book One in the Eden Empire series, about the Eden sisters, who are heiresses trying to make a go of it running their grandmother’s Manhattan department store. This series is so fun and shows the best of female relationships. Plus, who doesn’t love a good Christmas romance? I hope you’ll check it out!
When a book is first scheduled for release, it always feels SO far off. Then you realize how much work you need to do for a proper launch and it feels like you’ll never have enough time. I’m feeling both of those things with Secrets of a (Somewhat) Sunny Girl, which is out October 16. That’s what happens when you pour your heart into a book. More than anything, I’m excited for readers to get their hands on this story about sisters, families, and reclaiming lost love.
So what do you need to know? The preorder is live on all platforms. If you want to take a peek at the book, HEA USA Today ran an exclusive excerpt. I have also posted Chapter One. If you want a reminder to buy on release day, sign up for my newsletter. If you’re a Goodreads user, it would be awesome if you add it to your TBR. And lastly, if you want to know what some of the early reviews are saying, read on. I hope you decide to check it out in October. As always, please let me know what you think!
